Flat Flexible Connectors (FFC and FPC) are devices used to connect two separate electrical circuits to one another electronically, most commonly used in the electronic, medical, and aerospace industries. The most common type of connector today is the 15-38-8040.

The 15-38-8040 connector is a PCB-mounted connector, which has a 0.2mm-0.5mm pitch, making it suitable for most surface mount applications. It is also known as a "flexible flat cable" because of its flat-ribbon construction. The flat nature of the cable allows for the connection to be made to many different types of components, including through-hole and SMD components. The maximum current capacity of the 15-38-8040 connector is 8 Amps, making it well suited for many applications.

The 15-38-8040 connector consists of two separate parts, the full-surface connector and the flanged connector. The full-surface connector is the portion that is usually soldered to the board. The flange is the portion that mates to and secures the two pieces together. The two pieces are connected via a flexible strip of metal, typically copper or aluminum. The connection is usually made by soldering the flange to the full-surface connector, which also provides strength and rigidity to the connection. The connection is then secured with a screw or other type of securing device.

The most common application for the 15-38-8040 connector is in the medical and aerospace fields. In medical applications, the connector is frequently used to connect devices such as heart monitors and ventilators to patient monitoring systems. In Aerospace, the connector is typically used to connect navigation and avionics systems, as well as electrical systems in airplanes.

The working principle of 15-38-8040 connectors is relatively simple. Once the two pieces are properly connected, the electrical current has two paths in which to travel. The first path is between the solder joints of the flanged connector and full-surface connectors. The second path is through the flexible strip of metal. As the electrical current passes through the two paths, it creates a circuit that then allows electricity to flow between the two pieces.

In conclusion, the 15-38-8040 flat flexible connector is a widely used device in many industries and applications. Its compact size, increased flexibility, and quick assembly make it an ideal choice for a variety of applications. Additionally, its high current capacity makes it suitable for even the most demanding applications. Its simple working principle makes it easy to use and install, reducing downtime from installation and repair.
