FC1-24-L2-T-WT

Flat Flexible Connectors (FFC and FPC) have become increasingly important for the high-reliability needs of many applications. As its name suggests, FFC offers a flat, flexible design that allows for more efficient use of space and decreases the cost of assembly for many components. The FFC series also features various pin counts, from copper contacts to gold plated options, and has many different industry-standard configurations.

The FC1-24-L2-T-WT series is an FFC connector range designed to meet the requirements of a variety of applications, including automotive, communication, audio/visual, consumer, medical, and other demanding markets. This series features a top-mount configuration and a range of contact pitches, including 0.25, 0.3, 0.35, 0.5, 0.65, 0.8, and 1.0mm. With 24 pins and two rows, this range is ideal for higher-density requirements. The wire entry also enables flexible circuit board layout.

The FC1-24-L2-T-WT’s “T” type design makes it easier to mount, and provides greater strength against mating forces and vibration. T\' type FFCs also ensure even pressure distribution across all contacts, reducing or eliminating signal pin and board damage. This series can accept both tin-plated copper wire and gold-plated copper wire. With its ruggedized construction and variety of contact pitches, the FC1-24-L2-T-WT meets a variety of requirements and is suitable for even the most extreme harsh environments.

The working principle of the FC1-24-L2-T-WT is relatively simple. The two main components of FFC cables are the flexible cable and the contact. The flexible cable is usually made of polyimide material and consists of two layers of conductive tracks. The flexible cable is then positioned between the two contact elements, which have copper strips of different lengths and widths that are crimped and soldered together and encapsulated to form the contact. When the flexible cable is then attached to the contacts, the copper strips are in electrical contact with one another. Depending on the number of pins, the cable will require either two, four, or more contacts. The contacts are also typically exposed, making them accessible for easy soldering.

The FC1-24-L2-T-WT connector series offers a reliable and cost-effective solution for a wide variety of applications. Its flexible design enables the connector to be mounted in tight areas and resist vibration and other harsh environmental conditions, making it suitable for a range of demanding uses. With its reliable contact system, top-mount configuration, and multiple contact pitches, the FC1-24-L2-T-WT offers an excellent solution for customers with high-reliability needs.
