The term flexible printed circuit refers to a specific kind of connection designed to join PCBs and flexible printed circuits (Printed Circuit Boards).
Directly inserting FPCs into the connector is one way to connect them. It is also possible to connect via FFCs (Flexible Flat Cable).
The gold tail on the majority of TFTs and touchscreens is an illustration of an FPC. Contrary to an FFC, FPCs frequently featured components.
To connect to a PCB, FPCs are commonly utilised with a ZIF connector.
The pitch, the number of pins, whether or not the connection includes contacts on the top, bottom, or both, and the material of the connectors on the FPC and the ZIF connector should all be taken into account when choosing a compatible ZIF connector for a specific FPC.
The Global FPC board connector market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2030.
The “Board to FPC Connector,” introduced by Panasonic, enables the use of fewer parts and fewer assembly hours for automobiles while also allowing for enhanced design of automotive LED lighting, etc.
A connector with a distinctive structure that enables a direct connection between the automobile FPC and the board has been created and commercialised by Panasonic.
As a result of Panasonic’s distinctive metal terminal connection structure, which enables direct connection between the FPC and the board and removes the need for relay harnesses, fewer parts and assembly man-hours are required.
Due to the double-clip contact structure, the connector has great vibration resistance and can be used with automotive applications like LED lights and BMSs.
High reliability is achieved via the connector’s inertial lock construction, which precludes insufficient engagement.
