Flat Flex & Ribbon Jumper Cables

0210491079 Application Field and Working Principle

• Flat Flex Jumper Cables

Flat Flex jumper cables are made from super flexible insulated stranded or solid wire conductor, which is laid in flat parallel configuration. This type of flat cable is suitable for applications requiring bending past 90° or under enclosure. The cable is also available with self-coloured or coloured wires. This type of flexible wiring can withstand forces generated by movement and still maintain its flexibility, bending easily without breaking.

Jumper cables are available in various lengths and sizes. The width ranges from 0.25mm to 6.0mm, while the pitch ranges from 0.5mm to 12.0mm. Many customized cable versions are also available. The special flat flex design is also suitable for robotic applications, such as connecting motors, servo motors, etc.

Flat flex jumper cables typically feature a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) jacket and a surface mount male and female connectors on both ends. The connectors may feature levers for easy removal from the device, a contact protection plug to prevent dust or moisture from entering the device, or a protective cover to protect the contacts.

• Ribbon Jumper Cables

Ribbon jumper cables are usually used when multiple wire signals need to be routed. The ribbon cable is essentially a multi-wire flat cable, with one or more parallel conductors insulated by a plastic film. The unique flat construction makes it more flexible than conventional round cables and keeps them arranged in a neat, organized manner.

Ribbon jumper cables are available in a wide range of sizes and varieties. Typical sizes range from 0.4mm to 8.0mm wide, with pitch ranging from 0.6mm to 8.0mm. Many customized versions are also available. Ribbon cables are designed to be used with breadboards and connectors, allowing the user to easily attach or remove the cable from a device.

Ribbon jumper cables typically feature a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) jacket and a surface mount male and female connectors on both ends. The connectors may also feature levers for easy removal from the device, a contact protection plug to prevent dust or moisture from entering the device, or a protective cover to protect the contacts.

In summary, 0210491079 application field and working principle can be classified in both flat flex and ribbon jumper cables. The flat flex cable provides a high-flexibility in bending connection, while the ribbon cable has a multi-wire to provide multiple-signal connection.
