FFC (Flat Flexible) connectors, also known as FPC (Flexible Print Circuit) connectors, are essential tools in a wide range of applications. FFC connectors are used in mobile phones, computers, appliances, cameras, personal digital assistants (PDAs), GPS systems, and a host of other electronic devices. They can be used to connect different components, or transfer information.

FFC connectors feature a variety of contact types such as straight, right angled, and latching contacts. They can also be used to bridge the gap between two circuit boards, or connect discrete wires. The contact pitch typically ranges from as small as 0.3 mm to as large as 10 mm. The number of contacts, contact types, and length of the cable depend on the application.

FC1-17-L1-T-LC is one type of FFC, which is characterized by the flat flex connector jacket housing with a pitch of 1.27 mm and an insulation displacement contact (IDC) socket terminal type, which enables easier and secure crimping of the flexible cable. It utilizes a single-ended, data-grade cable with a center conductor of copper-clad steel (CCS) and four conductors. These cables come in different lengths and colors according to the application.

The FC1-17-L1-T-LC FFC has a variety of applications, and most commonly is used for transferring signals between two points on a circuit board. It is suitable for data transfer, power transmission, and signal output in high-density printed circuit board (PCB) installations. Additionally, these connectors are ideal for high-speed Ethernet applications, inter-system telecommunications, consumer electronics, embedded peripherals, and digital audio/video systems.

The FC1-17-L1-T-LC is also suitable for different harsh environments, such as extremely high or low temperatures, chemical exposure, and low pressure. The cable core is braided and insulated with low-smoke zero halogen (LSZH) materials to protect the electrical signals from being degraded. This type of connector also ensures a reliable connection even under shock and vibration conditions.

The working principle of the FC1-17-L1-T-LC is quite simple. First, the FPC is inserted into the slot of the FFC connector. Then, an insulation displacement contact is used to fold the ground wire and four signal conductors into the insulation displacement contact, in order to form a stable electrical connection between the conductive contacts of the connector and the cable core. This connection provides secure mating and reliable contact without the need for soldering.

In summary, FC1-17-L1-T-LC connectors are a great choice for high-density applications, as they provide reliable connection and protect signals from external factors. Their simple design and easy-to-use nature make them increasingly popular for use in various applications.
