Flat Flexible (FFC/FPC) Connectors, or flexible flat connectors, are flat electrically-conductive elements that are used to connect two printed circuit boards together, or even to connect two different components such as a processor to a peripheral or a memory card to a system board. FFC/FPC connectors are becoming increasingly popular in consumer electronics applications such as video games, laptops, and portable media players due to their small size, flexibility, and ability to make tight electrical connections.

The basic design of a FFC/FPC connector consists of a flexible flat ribbon that is fitted with small metal contacts. This ribbon is then enclosed in a protective casing that protects it from dust, moisture, and other elements. The contacts are made of a variety of materials including copper, tin, gold, and stainless steel. The protective casing is typically made of plastic.

The two main types of FFC/FPC connectors are the board-to-board type and the edge-mount type. Board-to-board connectors consist of a flat ribbon cable with contacts on both sides. This type of connector is typically used to connect two printed circuit boards together in a variety of applications. Edge-mount connectors, on the other hand, are used to connect components in consumer electronics applications. This type of connector has contacts on one side only and is usually less expensive than the board-to-board type.

FFC/FPC connectors have a wide variety of applications. They are commonly used as a wired connection between two printed circuit boards in consumer electronics such as video game consoles, laptop computers, and portable media players. They can also be used as a wired connection between two components such as a processor to a peripheral or a memory card to a system board. FFC/FPC connectors are also used to form a printed circuit-like structure, such as a flex board or flex cable, by connecting multiple printed circuit boards together.

The working principle of a FFC/FPC connector is fairly simple. Once a flexible flat ribbon is inserted into the connector, the connector\'s internal contacts make electrical contact with the conductive layers on the ribbon. These contacts provide an electrical connection between the two board sides, either by direct contact or through an electrical trace on the FPC ribbon. The contacts also have a small amount of mechanical force that keeps the ribbon in place and provides a secure connection for the circuit.

FFC/FPC connectors are easy to use and provide a reliable connection between two printed circuit boards. They are typically inexpensive and can be used in a variety of applications. They are becoming increasingly popular in consumer electronics applications due to their small size, flexibility, and ability to make tight electrical connections.
