Parameter:

Because of their smooth, compact design, flat cables are more flexible than their round counterparts, especially in high-flex applications such as robots, festoon and automated processing equipment. They are also suitable for military, aerospace, medical and clean room systems. This flexibility can be attributed to the fact that flat cables flex equally and in the same plane, reducing the twisting and stress put on round cables. Offering small bend radii, flat cables are able to fit into tight and compact spaces and are designed for up to tens of millions of cycles.

The conductors in flat cables are equally spaced, with the exact same distance to travel. In round cable, however, the wires twist and turn inside the cable, so the spacing and the length of travel varies, and it constantly changes. The result is that flat cables have significantly better electrical performance than round cables, including faster signal speeds, less skew, and higher current-carrying capacity, due to the consistent, straight-line path for the electrical current in a flat cable.

FFC (flexible flat cables) are a type of ribbon cable, so named due to their wide flat structure. They are usually a straight connector, without any additional components. FFC cables usually consist of a plastic film, to which multiple metallic connectors are bonded and the spacing between each connector is referred to as the ‘pitch’.

The construction of FFC cables means they take up less space and offer greater flexibility than round cables and often offer better EMI/RFI suppression as well as eliminating wire coupling issues.

They tend to be used in high density electronic systems especially where high-flexibility is required, for example connections to a moving printer head, folding mobile-phones or where there are weight or space limitations.

SYH offers a selection of FFC cables with 0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1mm, 1.25mm and 2.54mm pitch options suitable for soldering or pug-in connections.
