AFFC-100-16-153-11

Flat Flexible Cables (FFCs) have been increasingly used in electronics applications in the recent past. They are extremely versatile cables which can be used in many different ways, from connecting circuit boards to electrical components and providing power connections to providing communication data paths. FFCs are available in a wide range of configurations, sizes and materials, allowing engineers to choose the most appropriate cable for each application. One of the most commonly used FFCs is the AFFC-100-16-153-11. This article will explore the applications for, and working principle of this cable.

The AFFC-100-16-153-11 is an FFC with a 5.25mm pitch, and is typically used in applications where space savings, flexibility, and reliability are the primary considerations. The cable has a 16-conductor ribbon configuration, with a total length of 153mm. The cable has a dual-sided contact structure, with the two sides connected by eight conductor contacts. This particular cable has a voltage rating of 30V, a current rating of 0.5A per contact, and an insulation resistance of 100M Ohms. It is also RoHS compliant and fireproof.

The AFFC-100-16-153-11 is ideally suited for applications that require reliable connections in tight spaces. These include control systems, industrial equipment, computer peripherals, communications devices, and home appliances. In these applications, the FFC allows for greater flexibility by allowing the users to route the cables in any direction. Connection points can easily be changed or rearranged if needed, making it much easier to maintain or modify a system. Due to its small size, the FFC-100-16-153-11 also allows for less space to be occupied by the cable, which makes it ideal for devices that require small size.

The AFFC-100-16-153-11 uses a unique and proprietary contact method known as Ribbon Jumper Technology. The technology uses two conductors in a ribbon configuration, with the two sides joined together using a special tape. This creates a secure connection that is less affected by vibration, while still allowing for flexibility and space savings. The contact pads on the ribbon are also designed to provide an electrical connection that is resistant to dust, dirt, and other environmental conditions. This makes the AFFC-100-16-153-11 ideal for applications that need secure connections when exposed to harsh environments.

In summary, the AFFC-100-16-153-11 is a flexible cable that is ideal for applications where space savings, flexibility, and reliability are the key requirements. It uses the Ribbon Jumper technology to provide secure connections in tight spaces, while also offering a high level of protection against environmental conditions. The cable’s dual sided contact structure allows for easy installation and maintenance, while the small size of the cable makes it perfect for devices that require a small form factor.
