When we talk about FPC cables, what FPCs must you know or be familiar with?
FPC can be categorized into many kinds according to its function, such as antenna FPC, LCD FPC, touch screen FPC, capacitive display FPC, and so on.
FPC cable is one of them, in common parlance, FPC cable is the connecting cable.FPC cable has the same composition as FPC, because it is a kind of FPC.FPC is generally longer, and the two ends are designed as pluggable pins, which can be directly connected to the connector or soldered to the product.
The middle is generally a line, because the FPC line needs a certain degree of flexibility, therefore, the substrate is generally calendered copper, resistant to bending, flexible.FPC line processFPC line used in the surface treatment process is generally immersed in gold, and occasionally anti-oxidation treatment. However, the anti-oxidation process is not resistant to high temperatures, environmental tolerance is better than immersed gold, both prices are similar, therefore, the vast majority of immersed gold process.
In addition, there are processes such as tin plating and tin spraying, but the temperature resistance of FPC is generally below 280 degrees Celsius, while tin spraying will have a temperature of more than 300 degrees Celsius and the hardness of the solder paste is small, so it is seldom used.Functions and Uses of FPCFunction of the FPC line is to connect the two related parts or products. Nowadays, many products are using the line because it has some bendability, and FPC line has been used in printers, cell phones, laptops and many other products.
