Flat Flexible Connectors (FFC/FPC) are connectors that make connection between two components or devices quick and easy. The most common FFC/FPC connectors are flat ribbon cables with a series of tiny metal pins at one end. The process of connecting two components together with an FFC involves two simple steps. First, the pins of the flat ribbon cable are lined up with the connector on the receiving component. Then, the cable is pressed against the connector. This pressure causes the pins to create electrical contact with the connector and completes the connection.

The specific model Series 66226 (018LF) is an .050 pitch FFC/FPC Connector with a friction lock system. This system is capable of withstanding high vibration ratings and is a great solution when connecting two components in a confined space. It is a two-piece connector, meaning that the cable assembly remains attached to the housing during insertion and removal.

The main application for this connector is Automotive wiring harness wiring in the chassis area. It can also be used for point-to-point wiring in industrial and consumer applications such as dishwashers, ovens, vending machines, gaming machines, digital TVs, and more. It has excellent electrical performance and features a 1.27 mm contact pitch and 24 contacts per row. The connector also features a wide variety of keying options including keyed, lock/unlock, and none for mating retention.

The working principle behind the 66226 (018LF) is quite simple. When connecting two components, the metal pins of the cable are lined up with the connector on the receiving component. This locks the cable firmly in place and provides electrical contact between the two components. For the friction lock system, the plastic housing manufactured with square keys around the whole circumference, and the contact is soldered on the printed board. Pressing on either the plastic part or the cable guide pressures the cable into the pins, creating the friction that locks it securely into place.

In summation, the 66226 (018LF) is an excellent and durable FFC/FPC connector solution for automotive wiring harness wiring and all types of point-to-point wiring in industrial and consumer applications. It has superior electrical performance characteristics and includes multiple keying options for secure mating retention. The unique friction lock system provides an effective locking mechanism that efficiently connects two components together.
