Introduction to FFC, FPC (Flat Flexible) Connectors

Flat Flexible (FFC and FPC) Connectors are connectors and cables designed to connect printed circuit boards (PCBs) and provide interconnects between different lines over a flat and flexible substrate. FFC/FPC connectors offer a space-saving and cost-efficient way to solve various interconnecting problems and bring flexibility and reliability to today’s electronic designs.FFC/FPC connectors are typically composed of a high-performance flexible flat cable, metallic strips or wires, and a connector housing. Depending on the application, the cable can be flat, or it may be folded to make a cable with a larger profile. FFC/FPC isn’t exclusively used to mate two PCBs together, but can be used to externally connect wire harnesses, switches, and other components.FFC/FPC connectors are available in various shapes and sizes to fit each particular application. Common sizes range from 4 to 64 positions but custom sizes are also available.

XF3M18151BR100 Application Field and Working Principle

The XF3M18151BR100 is a 3M™ FFC/FPC Connector with a 1mm pitch, 1 row, and 8 contacts. It features a secure, touch-proof, flat flexible connector in a 0.40mm profile height, ideal for space-limited applications such as mobile devices. A secure hold is achieved with the small pitch of 0.4mm, which enables a high connection rate of 15 contacts/mm on substrate. This has a greater resistant to external stress that helps prevent the cable from breaking due to vibration or movement. In addition, a touch-proof (inactive) lock helps protect against unintentional contact when plugging, unplugging and handling the connector.The XF3M18151BR100 has several features favoring its use in consumer and industrial applications such as smartphones, automotive, medical and industrial control. The tin plating on the contacts ensures lasting electrical performance making it suitable for a variety of applications and the cable halogen free with 30VAC/DC voltage rating.The XF3M18151BR100 works on the principle of shear force, which is a mechanical force applied at either side of the contact points. As the mating connector is inserted, a small force is applied to the connectors which causes the two contact points to shear and move slightly away from each other. This increases contact resistance and ensures a secure connection.
