FFC flexible flat cable is a soft and flat cable. You can freely select the number of wires and the gap size of wires for FFC ribbon cables. The FFC ribbon cable is designed to make the connecting line more convenient. This will greatly reduce the volume of electronic products, help businesses improve production efficiency and reduce production costs. FFC flexible flat cable is more suitable for the data transmission line between the main board of electronic products and moving parts, between PCB boards and electronic devices. Therefore, FFC ribbon cables are widely used for signal transmission lines and cable connections between various electrical equipment and mainboards such as printers, scanners, copiers, stereos, plotters, televisions and mainboards, and can be seen everywhere in the modern technology era.

What is the application of FFC flexible cable?

FFC flexible cable is widely used to connect the print head of various printers and the motherboard, including the signal transmission and motherboard connection of plotters, scanners, copiers, audio, LCD devices, fax machines, various video drivers and other products. There are few places in modern electrical equipment.

FFC ribbon cable: The number and distance of wires can be selected arbitrarily for flexible cable laying, which is convenient for connecting wires, greatly reducing the volume of electronic products, reducing production costs and increasing production power. It is more suitable to use data transmission cables between moving parts and mainboards, between PCB boards and PCB boards, and between miniaturized electrical equipment. The general standard is flexible cable with various distances, including 0.5 mm, 0.8 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.25 mm, 1.27 mm, 1.5 mm, 2.0 mm and 2.54 mm.

What is the difference between FFC flexible ribbon cable and FPC ribbon cable?

FFC flexible flat cable - FPC is a flexible printing production line. In manufacturing, the configuration of production lines is different.

1. FPC uses chemical etching to process flexible copper foil (FCCL) to obtain flexible printed circuit boards with orbital single-sided, double-sided and multi-layer structures.

2. The flat copper foil is sandwiched between the upper insulating film and the lower insulating film for FFC. The product is relatively simple and thick.

FFC flexible flat cable is flexible and can be flexibly applied to various occasions. It can be folded and bent freely, and it is not a problem to slide for thousands of times. In addition, the FFC flexible cable is easy to use, small in size, easy to understand the wiring procedure, and can be operated by everyone.

Typical models of FFC flexible cable are as follows:

Type A: both ends are connected, and the reinforcing plate is pasted on the insulating tape.

Type B: pass through the reinforcing plate and stick it directly on the insulating tape.

Type C: two end stiffeners directly attached to the conductor.

Type D: the reinforcing plates at both ends directly attached to the conductor intersect.

Type E: one end of the reinforcing plate is pasted on the insulating paper, and the other end is directly soldered.

Type F: the reinforcing plates at both ends are directly attached to the insulating tape, and the inner half falls off.

Type G: pay attention to the notes of direct welding at both ends.
