62684-401100ALF

Introduction

FFC and FPC (Flat Flexible) Connectors are popular and well-suited in various applications such as in various electronic units and computers. The specific type of connector for this topic is the ALF 62684-401100ALF model. This specific model offers high flexibility and excellent electrical performance which makes it suitable for several applications.

Application Field

The 62684-401100ALF model FFC/FPC​ Connector is a reliable connection which allows multiple connection in 2different ways:

• Single Ended Connection: This type of connection offers the user a compact and cost-effective solution for short-distance connections which requires mating and unmating of connector.This way of connection allows for easy stripping and insertion with an automated machine.
• Board-to-Board Connection: This type of connection offers two contact points on each FFC/FPC connector for more accuracy while connecting, which eliminates crosstalk and signal distortion.This connection is suitable for high-speed transmission as well.

Working Principle

The 62684-401100ALF model FFC/FPC​ Connector works on the principle of pressure contact. It uses a spring locking cliff for better contact retention and electrical performance. This locking clip takes the form of a crescent-shaped belt which springs outward when the connector is inserted. This outwaring belt compresses against the contact points thus achieving a tight and reliable connection.

The dual-contact between the FFC/ FPC Connector secures the connection, reducing crosstalk and preventing signals from being distorted. The shielded contact prevents electromagnetic interference (EMI). The shielding contact is made out of plastic material thus making it suitable for use in low-voltage applications.

Conclusion

The 62684-401100ALF model FFC/FPC Connector offers high flexibility and excellent performance. It has two contact points on each FFC/FPC Connector which ensures the connection is secure, reducing crosstalk and preventing signals from being distorted. It also has a shielded contact which prevents electromagnetic interference (EMI). This connector is suitable for a variety of applications such as in various electronic units and computers.
