FFC-FPC connectors are small but significant pieces of equipment that ensure that a whole production line operates functionally. They are available in a few different fine-pitch styles, and can be purchased with anywhere from one to 136 circuits. Special grounding techniques are also possible with certain connectors, which are available with both tin-lead and lead-free plating, depending on which you prefer.
Noise Suppression
FFC-FPC connectors are highly useful for noise suppression and elimination. Grounding techniques help suppress large amounts of noise and control signal line impedance. Some are also available in high-barrier packaging that protects against moisture that could cause severe damage.
These products incorporate low profile height and lightweight features, and are designed with practicality in mind. The centerline spacing makes the wire-to-board connections more effective, and in particular, new models of FPC connectors are being developed in order to meet the growing industry need for smaller, more compact models.
Reliability, Practicality and Cost Effectiveness
Some of the many benefits of FFC-FPC connectors include their practical small size and centerline spacing. There are a variety of spacing options available and there is always a great deal of room for customization. Right-angle and vertical mounting options are available, as well as top and bottom contact options.
These connectors are designed to be versatile and engineered to be small, efficient, and practical, and they are used for a variety of purposes. The connectors are all a low profile height and manufactured in both ZIF and non-ZIF styles, so clients have a lot of choice available to them. In addition, no tooling is required to prepare the connectors, making their installation a hassle-free process.
Versatility
Connectors are an important tool that minimizes hassle when preparing a wide range of different pieces of technology, including tablets, smartphones, computers, laser printers, cameras, GPS devices, and medical software.
Applications can vary widely, so it is important to be sure which mounting option is best for your specific project. There are many contact and actuator types on the market, and it is advised to research the different styles of FFC-FPC connectors. Your local supplier of these products can provide guidance on selecting the right product(s) for your application.
