Flat Flex, Ribbon Jumper Cables

2205098-1 application field and working principle

Introduction

Flat flex, ribbon jumper cables are a specialized type of electrical connection or conductor used in the field of electronics. These cables are generally produced from thin and highly flexible copper strands, allowing them to be highly reliable even with frequent bending and vibration. This type of cable can provide a secure connection between two locations, regardless of the shape or size of the device or connector. Additionally, they are often able to extend the physical structure of the device being connected, allowing for better access to hard to reach components.

Application Field

Flat flex, ribbon jumper cables are the popular choice for a number of applications due to their flexibility, reliable connection, and convenience. They are often used in the automotive industry where they can be run through tight locations, providing access to hard-to-reach components. Additionally, they are popular in computing for everything from connecting computer peripherals, such as keyboards, mice, and USB webcams, to complex internal electrical connections. Flat flex, ribbon jumper cables are also routinely used in the telecommunications field, audio systems, and in many other consumer and industrial applications.

Working Principle

Flat flex, ribbon jumper cables are designed to have a tight electrical connection between two devices. This typically requires two identical components known as contacts, one at each end of the cable, that are designed to mate together. In addition to their connection capability, these cables often require a connector to secure the cable to one of the components in order to maintain a proper electrical connection. The most common connectors are crimp-style, ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) and latches.

As the flat flex jumper cable is connected to the two components, the contacts are secured to the device, and the electrical connection is made. The current then flows through the cable, transferring energy from one location to the other. This conductor will maintain a secure and dependable connection as long as the contacts are properly aligned and the cable is secured.

Conclusion

Flat flex, ribbon jumper cables have become the preferred choice of cable for a myriad of electronics applications thanks to its reliable connection, convenience, and flexibility. It is often the top option for automotive, computing, telecommunications, and other consumer and industrial applications. When used correctly, these cables allow for superior connections over traditional electrical conductors, allowing for a higher degree of compatibility, flexibility, and convenience.
