Flat Flex Cables

Flat flex cables, also known as flat flexible cables, Flat Flex cables are flat strips of insulated electrical conductors with Shielded layer for EMI protection and solderable contacts. Flat Flex cables are highly durable, flexible and lightweight, which makes them ideal for applications where space is limited. They are commonly used in medical, audio, video, automotive, and electronic application fields.

Flat Flex cables typically have four layers: insulated conductors, a shielded layer for EMI protection, an insulator that enables the shielding to be soldered to the ground, and a protective outer jacket. Each conductor is made of a single strand of insulated copper that is twisted together and covered with a metal shield and an insulated outer shell.

Flat flex cables are available in a variety of sizes and insulation materials. They come with different conductor counts and lengths, making them customizable for the application or environment. The most popular conductor counts for flat flex cables range from two to sixteen.

Flat Flex cables are well-suited to applications that require high-speed transmissions, such as data storage and transfer, as well as analog applications that require low contact resistance. They are also reliable for high-power applications where stable electrical connection and electrical noise are critical.

Ribbon Jumper Cables

Ribbon jumper cables are similar to flat flex cables, but they are designed for high-speed data transmissions. Instead of a flat strip, ribbon jumper cables are made of multiple narrow ribbon cables, which can increase signal performance with crosstalk and skew control. They are commonly used in automotive electronics and entertainment systems, as well as high-end audio and video systems.

Ribbon jumper cables are composed of multiple conductors that are insulated with a heat resistant material. The insulation has an outer surface with an anti-static coating and is usually available in black, red, or yellow. Like Flat Flex cables, ribbon jumper cables are available in different conductor counts and lengths.

Ribbon jumper cables are designed to be used in high-speed data transmissions and provide stable signal transmission. They are also reliable for high temperature applications and reliable in rugged environments. As with flat flex cables, ribbon jumper cables are lightweight, flexible, and reliable.

Flat flex cables and ribbon jumper cables are both used in a wide range of applications, from medical to automotive to audio and video. Both are designed to provide a durable, flexible and reliable connection for electrical signal transmissions.

The working principle of Flat flex and ribbon jumper cables is simple – conductors are insulated and twisted together and surrounded by a metal shield and an insulated outer shell. The metal shield helps reduce electromagnetic interference and the insulated outer shell protects the conductors from damage. The shielding is soldered to the ground to create a reliable electrical connection.

Flat flex and ribbon jumper cables are available in different sizes, insulation materials, and conductor counts, making them customizable to the application or environment. They are both reliable for high-speed and high-power applications, and are used in a wide range of applications.
