FFC, FPC (Flat Flexible) Connectors

Flat flexible connectors, also known as FFC and FPC, have become an increasingly popular choice for optimized connection technologies in many markets. FFC and FPC connectors are widely used for connecting devices such as computers, tablets, smartphones, and other consumer electronic components due to their compact size, lightweight, and flexibility. These connectors are also widely used in automotive, industrial, and medical applications.

FFC/FPC connectors consist of a male and female plastic connector housing which is typically connected to an electronic conductive traces. The conductive traces form a circular arrangement, often referred to as a Zigzag, which allows the connector to maintain perfect contact and be mechanically stability even when flexed. FFC/FPC connector housings are generally made from high-temperature polyester (UL94-V-0) which is designed to withstand temperatures up to 250°C.

FFC/FPC connectors can easily be paired with PCBs as FPC connectors have very small pitches, allowing for further space savings. They are also very reliable as they have a good resistance to shock, vibration, physical stress, and can be used in most environments. The main disadvantage of FFC/FPC is that they are relatively expensive and require special tools for termination.

FFC/FPC is widely used in a variety of electronic applications. They are commonly utilized in consumer electronics such as laptops, tablets, and smartphones. Additionally, they are found in industrial control networks, medical systems, automotive applications and various other portable or wearable devices. FFC/FPC connectors offer many advantages over traditional wires and cables, such as being able to be flexed up to 1000 times and being able to withstand up to 10kg of static pressure.

The main advantages of FFC/FPC connectors include:

• Compact size: FFC/FPC connectors can be much smaller than ordinary connectors, saving space within a system.
• Lightweight: Since FFC/FPC connectors are much smaller than traditional connectors, they are much lighter. This helps reduce the size and weight of a system.
• Flexibility: FFC/FPC connectors can be flexed up to 1000 times without reducing their performance or damaging the contacts.
• Reliability: FFC/FPC connectors have a good resistance to shock, vibration, and physical stress, making them ideal for harsh and extreme environments.
• Durability: FFC/FPC connectors can withstand temperatures up to 250°C and can be used for many years.
• Cost efficiency: FFC/FPC connectors are relatively inexpensive and require special tools for termination.

FFC/FPC are the perfect choice for tight spaces, extreme environments, and cost efficiency. These advantages have made them an attractive choice for many applications, ranging from consumer electronics to industrial control networks. With their ability to withstand shock, vibration, and physical stress, FFC/FPC connectors are a reliable and dependable connection solution.
