Flat Flexible (FFC) and Flat Pack (FPC) connectors are a subset of the general family of circuit board connectors known as board-to-board or PC board connectors. They are used to connect electronic circuits in board-to-board applications. FFC and FPC are similar but have subtle differences in design and manufacturing. Both provide a fast, reliable, and low-cost interconnect solution for the connection of printed circuit boards, allowing for higher density and improved performance in a variety of applications.

FFC and FPC connectors provide a simple, low-cost solution for connecting two printed circuit boards (PCBs). FFC and FPC connectors are commonly used for board-level interconnects in medical, automotive, communications, telecommunications, consumer electronics, avionics, and industrial markets. The FFC and FPC connector family has a wide range of options, including grades of insulation, contact style, contact termination, and packaging.

FFC and FPC are constructed of thin flat printed circuit boards. Two flat printed circuit boards are connected by a continuous flexible flat conductors (FFCs) or conductive elements (FPCs) consisting of copper foil patterns or pins, depending on the specific application. The FFC and FPC connectors are designed for flexibility and the material flexibility makes it easier to route a signal between two printed circuit boards. FFC cables are typically available in lengths of 0.5 mm to 11 mm in length.

The FPC and FFC connectors are available in two distinct configurations based on the connection type. The most common is the receptacle-to-receptacle connection, where two FPC or FFC cables are connected by a single connector. This type of connection provides a reliable connection and allows for greater flexibility with the boards since there are no soldering connections needed. The second type of FFC or FPC connection is the through-hole connection, which utilizes pins to connect two boards.

In terms of operation and functionality, both FFC and FPC connectors provide the same basic purpose; they are used to join two boards together. FFC and FPC connectors use the same contact technology to join two boards. They also feature the same contact technology in the way they mate, with the ends of the connector entering a set of channels in the receptacle, and making physical contact with the conductors on the board. FPC connectors, however, are more commonly used in applications that require additional flexibility and customization. This is because the FPC channels allow for more varied and complex routing of signal paths.

The FFC and FPC connectors are usually available as either a male or female receptacle configuration. The male FFC or FPC receptacle is designed to be inserted into the female receptacle. This allows for versatility in the design and flexibility serviceability. Female receptacles are designed to hold the FPC or FFC connector in place. Additionally, the number of contacts on each side of the board will vary from 1 to 12 contacts, depending on the application. Lastly, the FFC and FPC connectors are able to hold multiple inserts that accommodate multiple standards and/or proprietary signals.

FFC and FPC connectors provide a simple, low-cost, and reliable solution for connecting two printed circuit boards. They have a wide range of sizes and configurations, along with the ability to mate across different types of board technology. As a result, FFC and FPC connectors are widely used in various applications across a variety of industries. They are used for high-speed applications in telecommunications, automotive, avionics, and other industries that require signal integrity. Additionally, they are ideal for board-to-board communications in medical, communications, industrial, and consumer applications. FFC and FPC connectors provide users with a reliable interconnect solution that is highly reliable, versatile, and low-cost.
