Basic knowledge of FPC connector
FPC connector is a connector for connecting flexible printed circuit boards (FPC) and other circuit boards. The main features of FPC connectors include high density, very narrow form factor, suitable for tight Spaces, and high flexibility. They are commonly used in consumer applications such as laptops, cameras, computer equipment, home appliances and mobile phones .
1.Structure and use of FPC connectors
The FPC connector usually consists of the following parts:
core : protects terminals, provides insulation and mechanism strength.
tongue : crimped bar for insulation and alignment.
terminal : conductor for transmission of electronic signals.
welded sheet : component positioning and fixing, increase strength .
2.One end of the FPC connector is connected with PCB welding (mostly SMT welding), the other end is inserted with the FPC, and a card locking device is designed to maintain contact reliability .
Application areas of FPC connectors.
3.FPC connectors are widely used in various consumer electronics, industrial controls, displays, printers, automobiles, test and measurement instruments, home appliances and medical equipment. They are especially suitable for electronic products that require high density, miniaturization and high performance, such as laptops, cameras, mobile phones, etc .
4.Technical specifications and package sizes of FPC connectors
The technical specifications of the FPC connector include different pitches, such as 0.3mm, 0.5mm, 1.0mm, etc. These specifications will affect the package size 4. Common spacing is 0.50mm, 1.00mm, and 1.25mm, and a single FFC can have different spacing between different conductors on the same cable, but this is less common .
