Flat flexible connectors (FFC) are a form of electrical cable connector designed to be lightweight and flexible. These connectors are used for various wiring requirements, ranging from automotive and consumer electronics to medical equipment and industrial automation applications. The unique design of FFCs eliminates the need for bulky and heavier traditional connectors which can make them ideal for applications where space is limited.

FFC connectors are designed with an array of flat, metal ribbon contacts positioned side by side inside a protective cover. This enables theconnector to occupy a smaller footprint than most conventional connectors. Each contact can contain one or more wires, depending on the application, and the entire connector can be bent or twisted to fit into tight spaces while still maintaining an electrical connection.

The FFC connector is widely used in consumer electronics due to its size and weight, and is particularly useful in applications where space is limited. FFCs are also an increasingly popular choice in automotive, medical, and industrial automation applications. Due to its flat and flexible design, FFC connectors can traverse tight corners, allowing them to connect to tight spaces where rigid connectors cannot reach.

The various types of FFC connectors have different types of contact configurations; for example, 1-88117-0 FFC connectors have a configuration known as the Pin-and-Socket arrangement. The Pin-and-Socket arrangement has a male pin contact on one side of the FFC and a female socket on the other. The two contacts meet together to form an electrical connection. To ensure a secure connection, some FFC connectors have locking mechanisms or releasing tabs.

The working principle of FFC connectors is simple. When an external force is applied to the connector, the male pin contact slides into the female socket contact. This pushes the two contacts together to form an electrical connection. The connection is secured when the socket contact is slightly compressed. As the external force is released the pin and socket spring back to their original positions, forming a secure and reliable connection.

FFC connectors are widely used due to their small size and lightweight design. They allow for higher connection density in tight spaces, making them ideal for a variety of applications. Additionally, the Pin-and-Socket arrangement of 1-88117-0 FFC connectors provide a secure electrical connection and are easy to use in tight spaces.
