Flat Flex Cables

Flat flex cables, also known as Flexible Flat Cable (FFC) or Flat Flexible Cable (FFC), are cables used in a variety of applications as an alternative to round cables. These flat cables are typically composed of multiple thin insulated conductors arranged parallel to one another within a wider common insulating material. This main insulating material can be made from different types of materials including PVC, polyimide, glass, film, and various other coatings. This type of construction provides the flat flex with flexibility and rigidity.

Flat flex cables are used widely in various electronic devices and apparatus and come in a variety of sizes and configurations. They are popularly used in medical devices, automotive electronics, computers, video applications, telecommunication devices, and optical fiber systems. One of the benefits of using flat flex over round cables is that they are flat, which reduces the overall volume and the amount of cabling needed. Flat flex also offers good resistance to oil, water, grease, and abrasion.

When choosing a flat flex cable, several factors should be considered. The number and pitch of the conductors will vary depending upon the application, the total number of wires, and the desired voltage rating. The insulation should be chosen based on the environment the cable will be used in, and if the cable will be exposed to chemicals or physical stresses. The overall length of the cable, including the flexible section, should also be considered.

Ribbon Jumper Cables

Ribbon jumper cables, also known as ribbon cable or multi-conductor cable, are cables composed of multiple thin insulated conductors arranged parallel to and in close proximity to one another, and are generally encased in a jacket. Ribbon jumper cables can be composed of PVC, TEFZEL, or FEP type jacket materials, with a single jacket per cable or multiple jackets per cable depending on the application. Ribbon cables are widely used in electronic communication and computer equipment and are usually used in applications that require small space, high flexibility, and a minimum of electrical interference.

Ribbon cables offer several benefits for users. They are flexible, which makes them easy to maneuver around tight spaces. Ribbon cables also offer good signal integrity and deliver reliable performance. Additionally, they require less space than conventional cables, which makes them ideal for applications where space is limited. Because of their mechanical and electrical characteristics, ribbon cables are widely used in computer and network systems, medical equipment, aircraft avionics, and military applications.

When selecting a ribbon cable for a specific application, there are several factors to consider. The number and pitch of the conductors, type of insulation, voltage rating, wire gauge, and overall length of the cable must all be taken into account. Additionally, the type of jacket should be considered based on the environment the cable will be used in, as some jackets are better suited for specific applications than others.
