FFC, FPC (Flat Flexible) Connectors

Flat Flexible Connectors (FFC) are one of the most widely used flat cable connectors in the industry. FFC are used in a wide range of applications, from medical devices and computers, to televisions and cellular phones. FFC connectors offer flexibility in design and they are easy to install and maintain.

The wide range of applications for FFC connectors is due to their compact size, minimal space requirements, and ability to be highly customized to meet a variety of requirements. FFC connectors are often used as interconnects between PCB boards, and in the automotive and consumer electronic industries. They are also ideal for automation, robotics, and industrial control applications.

FPC connectors are a type of FFC connector with some additional features. They are small and lightweight, thus requiring minimal space for installation. The connectors are made from a thin sheet of flat conductive material, such as copper, and are designed to be easily wired into and out of circuit boards. FPC connectors are typically used to provide interconnections between PCBs, for signal and power transmission.

When it comes to FFC and FPC connectors, there are two main types: surface-mount and through-hole. As the names suggest, surface-mount connectors are designed for mounting on the surface of the board while through-hole connectors are made for insertion into a hole cut into the board. Generally, a surface-mount FFC connector is used when space is limited or when a more shallow connection is desired. However, some through-hole FFC connectors are still available for applications that require a deeper connection.

The working principle of FFC and FPC connectors is very simple. The connector’s job is to bridge the gap between two separate circuits, providing an electrical connection while suppressing electromagnetic interference. The FFC/FPC connector works by providing a mechanical and electrical connection between the two circuits. It is a passive component, meaning it does not require any power to operate. The FFC/FPC connectors are typically designed with a special metal contact that forms an electrical contact with the circuits. The contact is highly conductive and resists corrosion and arcing.

Overall, FFC and FPC connectors are reliable and cost-effective components that have become an essential part of modern electronics. They offer a wide range of features, such as modularity, flexibility, and adaptability, making them ideal for a variety of applications. Whether you are looking for a reliable connection for your PCB or a reliable way to join two cables, FFC and FPC connectors are the perfect solution.
