FFC / FPC connectors are connector products designed to interface with flat flexible conductors, including Flat Flexible Cable (FFC) and Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC). They provide a compact and reliable electrical and mechanical connection between a flexible interconnect and a mating circuit interface.
Within the broader Connectors category, FFC / FPC connectors are defined by their compatibility with flexible cable or flexible circuit terminations and their ability to support repeated assembly and disassembly while maintaining consistent contact engagement.
- FFC: Uses a flat, flexible cable with parallel conductors.
- FPC: Uses a flexible printed circuit with patterned conductive traces.
