FPC (Flat Flexible) Connectors are a type of electrical connector designed to provide reliable connection between two flat flexible cables, such as FPCs, FFCs, or flat ribbon cable. They are widely used in a variety of applications, such as telecommunication, computer, and consumer electronics. FPC connectors are often referred to as “flat flexible connectors” or “FFCs,” and are designed to be quickly and easily mated and unmated. FPCs have many advantages over other types of connectors, including their small size, light weight, low profile, and ease of use.

The flat flexible connector consists of a housing, contacts, insulation material, and a dielectric material. The housing is generally a molded plastic shell that encloses the contacts and insulation material. The contact is a small metal pin that has several small contact points which make contact with the FPC when the connector is mated. The insulation material and the dielectric material protect the contacts from electrical and mechanical damage. When the connector is mated, the contact points make an electrical connection between the FPC and the housing.

The working principle of the FFC system is based on the force-fit technology. In the force fit technique, the mating surfaces are pressed together at a specific force, usually a few hundred grams or more. This force ensures that an electrical connection is made between the two surfaces when the two mating parts are connected. The force-fit technology also provides an additional benefit of providing a form fit between the two mating surfaces, so that they stay connected even when exposed to vibrations and shocks.

The FPC’s use in the application field is quite versatile. FPCs can be used in various types of electronics such as audio, video, communication, and consumer products. They are also suitable for a variety of industrial applications such as automation, automotive, and military. FPCs are also widely used for medical applications such as cardiovascular implants, as well as in the most demanding environments such as space and underwater.

FPC connectors are a great choice for a wide range of applications, offering a reliable and cost-effective solution. With their small size, light weight, low profile, and ease of use, FPCs have become an increasingly popular choice for many types of electronics and other applications. Thanks to their reliability and versatility, FPCs will continue to be an essential part of the electrical and electronic industry in the years to come.
