Describe FPC connectors

FPC connector introduction

FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit Board translated into Chinese means: flexible printed circuit board, which is a PCB made of soft materials (folding and bending materials) in general) connector is used for the connection between LCD display and drive circuit (PCB). Currently, 0.5mm pitch products are mainly used.

0.3mm pitch products have also been widely used. With the recent trend that LCD drivers are integrated into LCD devices, the number of pins of FPC will decrease accordingly. At present, there are related products on the market. In the longer term, FPC connector is expected to be integrated with other mobile phone components on the frame of mobile phone or its LCD module.

The products are mainly used in various digital communication products, portable electronic products, computer peripherals, measuring instruments, automotive electronics and other fields, such as mobile phones, digital cameras, laptops, MID, MP3  4  5, handheld game machines, audio systems, etc.

FPC connector, contact the installation height of 3mm printed circuit board, lower and flip lock (one touch rotary system), prevent falling off and oblique mating of FPC, elastic pin design, can be used in zero IF and non ZIF, can be installed on the existing tin lead or lead-free surface of 0.3, 0.5, 1.0, and 1.25 mm midlines, four holes, vertical and right angle can be used for stack top or bottom contact.

Application of FPC connector

FPC connectors are mainly used for LCD, scanners and other electronic devices, which are widely used in computer motherboards, LCD displays, telecommunications cards, memories, mobile hard disks, including mobile devices. Recently, more and more mobile devices (such as mobile phones, MP3 players and laptops) use impact resistant back lock mechanism connectors when using FPC connectors. Connectors are used in automotive electronic connectors, vehicle mounted GPS navigation, medical equipment, and products are widely used in audio, digital machines, cameras, car audio, televisions, typewriters, calculators, cash registers, phones, CD ROMs, VCDs, DVDs, copiers, printers, wireless instruments and meters High tech pioneer in video calling equipment and aerospace products.
