FFC, FPC (Flat Flexible) Connectors - Contacts

FFC and FPC connectors are small, lightweight, and flexible connectors designed for use in electronics and other applications. These connectors are typically used in board-to-board connections, between prongs and wires, and for various DIY projects. The 788143-2 series are FFC and FPC connectors that offer increased durability and have various applications.

788143-2 Connectors Overview

The 788143-2FFC and FPC connectors have two gold-plated and charged contact pins with a fixed hole for mounting. They offer excellent insulation forces of between 10-30N and a maximum operating temperature of 85° C. These connectors also have a voltage rating of up to 250V and provide up to 2A of current. They consist of a housing made of black polyester filled with conductive contacts and are housed within a black polyester carrier case.

788143-2 Application Fields

The 788143-2 FFC and FPC connectors are suitable for a wide range of applications, including automotive, power, and consumer electronics. They are commonly used for any form of rapid connection and disconnection, such as various home appliances and for the installation of printed circuit boards (PCBs). They are also frequently found in devices with small or tightly spaced contacts, such as medical equipment, computer peripherals, and other precision equipment.

788143-2 Working Principle

The 788143-2 FFC and FPC connectors use a spring-loaded contact mechanism to establish electrical connection between two components. When the housing is pressed down onto the contacts, the contacts are brought into contact with each other and the spring-loaded structure ensures that there is adequate contact pressure. This ensures that a secure and reliable connection is established, and any fluctuation in voltage or current is prevented. The contacts are held in place with a fixed hole for mounting so that they cannot move or be easily damaged.

Conclusion

The 788143-2 FFC and FPC connectors offer increased durability and are suitable for use in a wide range of applications, from automotive and power to consumer electronics. They use a spring-loaded contact mechanism that ensures a secure and reliable connection, with contacts held in place with a fixed hole for mounting. This makes them an ideal choice for any application that requires a dependable, reliable connection.
