FFC, FPC (Flat Flexible) Connectors

Flat flexible connectors (FFCs) and flat printed circuit connectors (FPCs) are a type of electrical connector used to provide electrical connection between two surfaces. They are primarily used for the interconnection of electronic and electrical devices that require flexibility and a space-saving design. FFCs and FPCs are are available in a variety of shapes, sizes, and configurations.

IL-FPR-U7S-HF-N1 Application Field and Working Principle

The IL-FPR-U7S-HF-N1 is a flat printed circuit (FPC) connector manufactured by IL Co. It is mainly used in electronic and electrical devices that require high reliability, high temperature resistance, and a compact form factor. The connector has a 7-pin layout and a blind mating feature that enables faster installation and assured mating. The connector is designed with a dual-beam contact pattern, which provides a greater contact surface area and improved electrical connection. The contact surface area utilizes a patented spiral slot which enables the pin to accommodate a range of contact force tolerances with improved surface contact while also creating a much stronger contact than traditional straight slot connections.

The IL-FPR-U7S-HF-N1 is also rated for high voltage applications, with typical operating voltage ranging from 4V to 24V depending on the specific device. Its temperature range is also wide, with full-speed operation at temperatures ranging from -25°C to +85°C. The connector features RoHS compliant materials and offers excellent corrosion resistance. The IL-FPR-U7S-HF-N1 is an ideal choice for applications such as medical devices, consumer electronics, automotive, and industrial control systems.
