FPC/FFC connector is precision electronic connectors specifically designed for connecting flexible printed circuits (FPC) and flat flexible cables (FFC).

They are characterized by the following features:

1. Fine pitch design: The pitch between contacts in the connector includes very small distances such as 0.30mm, 0.50mm, and 1.00mm, allowing for high-density connections within limited space, catering to the modern electronic devices’ demand for miniaturization.

2. Flexibility: Due to the flexible nature of FPCs and FFCs, they can bend and fold within confined spaces, unlike traditional rigid circuit boards.

3. Locking mechanism: most FPC/FFC connectors are equipped with locking mechanisms, such as flip-lock, slide-lock, or straight insertion systems, to ensure that the cable or circuit board is securely fixed in place after insertion, preventing detachment or loss of connection.

4. Easy to install: They typically support simple insertion operations, facilitating quick and easy connection and disconnection of FPC or FFC.

5. Diverse connection options: FPC/FFC connectors offer a variety of pin spacings and pin counts to meet different design and functional requirements.

6. Reliable connection: These connectors are designed to provide stable and reliable electronic connections, ensuring the proper functioning of devices.

These connectors are widely used in portable electronic devices, consumer electronics, automotive electronics, and medical equipment, significantly impacting the reliability of electronic products.
