Flat Flex, Ribbon Jumper Cables

Flat Flex and Ribbon Jumper Cables consist of a combination of flat flexible cables (FFC / FPC) and ribbon jumper cables. FFC and FPC cables are used in a wide range of electronic equipment, from consumer electronics to medical electronics to automotive electronics. They are formed from conductors (wires) and insulation material and are available in different sizes, shapes, and conductor arrangements. Ribbon jumper cables are used to connect an FFC or FPC cable to another component or assembly.

Flat Flex and Ribbon Jumper Cables are commonly used to provide a reliable and cost-effective method of interconnect between circuit boards, in-system connectors, and other external components. The FFC or FPC can be used to create circuits in applications where simple fold-over structures are not available or too broad for the application. This type of cable is also frequently used in the military where there is a requirement for track-splitting structures with multiple conductor connections.

The main advantages of using a Flat Flex or Ribbon Jumper Cable are low-cost, reliable and repeatable electrical connections and minimal installation time. They are available in a variety of sizes and conductor wire arrangements, from single conductors to multiple conductors. The flexibility of FFC and FPC cables enable them to be routed through the tightest of locations, like components that are closely mounted to a circuit board. Further, they help eliminate noise and crosstalk from between the components by isolating their conductive paths.

Flat Flex and Ribbon Jumper Cables are produced through a process called Photo-etching. Photo-etching is a process where a thin copper sheet is exposed to light, causing the copper to etch away and form the electrical connections within the cable. This process allows the manufacturer to control the precise location of each conductor within the cable. The conductors are then crimped or soldered onto the copper insulators. The resulting cable is then cut to the desired length and connectors or solder tails added to the FFC and FPC.

The applications for FFC/FPC and Ribbon Jumper cables are virtually limitless. They are used in industrial robotics, medical imaging equipment, automotive applications, communications networks, and consumer electronics. With the advancements in electronics design, these cables can be tailored to meet the most exacting requirements.

Flat Flex and Ribbon Jumper Cables are an ideal solution for providing reliable and cost-effective interconnects in a variety of applications. With their ease of installation, low cost, and reliable performance, they are a great choice for any electronic designer’s interconnect needs.
