Electronic – Connector Identification: Flex Ribbon E-Paper Connector (Kindle 3G)

connectoridentification

This connector can be found on a Kindle 3G's display (which itself is sold as Part Number ED060SC7), but I'd like to interface with it, so i need the matching socket.

Dimensions:

  • plastic body is about 8,5mm (0.335") wide (long side)
  • all contacts combined are about 7mm (0,276") wide
  • there are 34 pins (perhaps 36 if the ones at the ends count?).
  • which would give them a distance pin-to-pin of about 0,4mm (~0.016")
  • length is about 1,5mm (0.06")
  • height (above flex-board-surface) is ~1mm (~0.04")

I would like to know the name of the part and who manufactures these. Extra points if somebody knows of a breakout to something tinker-friendly!
