Introduction

Flat flexible connectors (FFCs) have been widely used in recent years due to their small form factor, versatility, and good electrical properties. FFCs typically consist of a single-sided or double-sided flexible printed circuit board which is connected to either another flexible circuit or a more rigid printed circuit board.

Types of FFCs

FFCs are divided into two main types: flat, flexible connectors (FFCs) and flexible printed circuit (FPCs). FFCs are typically constructed of a single insulation layer with flat contacts which are non-collapsible; while FPCs are made of multiple layers of insulation with collapsible contacts, allowing them to be folded up when not in use.The FFC/FPC connector’s applications are differentiated by the width of insulation (i.e. the thickness of a single layer of insulation applied to the contacts). For instance, FFCs are commonly found in applications where the insulation is less than 0.76 mm thick (classed as ‘Thin FFCs’), while FPCs are found in applications where the insulation is between 0.76 and 1.0 mm thick (known as ‘Thick FPCs’).The FFC/FPC connector’s form factor (i.e. the size of the connector) is also important to consider. FFCs are available in widths of 0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.25 mm, 2.0 mm, and 3.0 mm. The most common type of FPC connector is 1.0 mm wide (FC1-14-L1-T-K).

FFC/FPC Connector Application Fields

FFC/FPC connectors are used in a wide range of applications, including:• Telecommunications: FFC/FPC are commonly used in telecommunications devices such as mobile phones and door entry systems.• Consumer electronics: FFC/FPC are widely used in consumer electronics such as DVD players, gaming consoles, and digital cameras.• Automotive: FFC/FPC are used in automotive applications such as dashboard displays, sound systems, and airbag safety systems.• Medical: FFC/FPC are found in numerous medical applications, such as heart rate monitors, EEG machines, and lab diagnostics.• Industrial: FFC/FPC are often used in industrial applications, such as data logging devices, robot controllers, and 4-20mA control systems.

FFC/FPC Connector Working Principle

FFC/FPC connectors are used to electrically connect two separate components. The two components are separated by two pieces of insulation which, when brought into contact with each other, cause an electrical connection. When the two pieces of insulation are pressed together, a conductive pad on the top surface makes contact with an exposed pad on the bottom surface. This connection causes a charge to flow between the two components, allowing data and energy to be transferred.FFC/FPC connectors are mechanical locking connectors, meaning that once the two pieces of insulation have been brought together, they stay tightly together, forming a secure connection. To separate the two pieces of insulation, the connector must be inserted into a tool which ‘freezes’ the connection, allowing the insulation to be pulled apart.

Conclusion

In conclusion, FFC/FPC connectors are versatile, efficient, and cost-effective connectors with numerous applications in the consumer electronics, telecommunications, automotive, medical, and industrial sectors. The working principle of FFC/FPC connectors relies on two pieces of insulation making contact with each other, forming a mechanical locking connection. This connection allows data and energy to be transferred between two components with efficiency and reliability.
