FFC and FPC Cables

(Showing 48 of 66)

FFCs (Flexible Flat Cable) are flat flexible ribbon cables with multiple metallic conductors that are usually a straight connector, without any additional components. FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) is a flexible circuit board made of a highly bendable and thin insulating material, FPCs are flexible and foldable printed circuits that consist of a layer or multiple layers of copper traces.

FFC Cables from DWIN, LX, Sparkfun and Waveshare are available for same day shipping. If you have any questions or would like to inquire about volume discounts, please don't hesitate to contact us.

What are FFC and FPC Cables?

Both FFC and FPC cables serve as solutions for compact electronic devices, but they differ slightly in their design and applications:

  • FFC (Flat Flexible Cables): These are thin, flat cables consisting of multiple flat, conductive wires arranged parallel to each other and encased in a flexible plastic ribbon. They are ideal for connecting printed circuit boards (PCBs) in devices where space is limited.
  • FPC (Flexible Printed Circuits): These cables are typically made with thin layers of copper laminated between flexible plastic substrates. The circuitry is printed onto the flexible material, allowing for more complex designs and intricate connections.

Both cable types are frequently used in high-density electronic products, including mobile phones, laptops, televisions, cameras, and other consumer and industrial devices.
