Product Overview
As the demands for higher-density packaging of electronic equipment
increase, the use of flexible printed circuits (FPC) to reduce
size, weight and assembly costs has expanded. Our larger pitch FPC
connectors are an ideal solution for routing signals through your
device when standard wire-to-board products are too large or
impractical. Set on larger centerline pitch, these FPC products are
generally found in larger mobile devices such as hand-held
scanners, cameras, and GPS units, as well as in larger applications
such as set-top boxes, business equipment, and industrial controls.
FPC interconnects of this size are also commonly found on devices
that have low-definition displays, touch panels, or screens. TE
Connectivity's FPC solutions are available in 0.25mm, 0.3mm, 0.4mm,
0.5mm, 1.0mm, and 1.25mm centerline spacing. This quick reference
guide introduces items with 0.5mm, 1.0mm, and 1.25mm centerline
spacing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Is there a pitch requirement for your interconnect need?
A1: TE offers FPC products from 0.25mm to 1.25mm centerline
spacing.
Q2: Is your application in a high vibration environment?
A2: ZIF version FPC interconnects have a greater retention force
and are suitable for high vibration applications.
Q3: Do you have a need for a higher number of mating cycles?
A3: ZIF version FPC interconnects allow for a greater number of
mating cycles via the use of an actuator.
Q4: In your application, when the flex cable meets the
board-mounted connectors, will the flex cable contact pads be face
up or face down?
A4: If face down, use bottom contact versions. If face up, use top
contact versions.
