Why FPC flexible technology production is favored in the market

What do you know about FPC connectors? Now that there is a flexible technology to produce FPC connectors that are favored by the market, what is the reason behind this, Konnra Electronics engineers are here to analyze the reasons why the FPC connectors produced by flexible technology are popular.
FPC and FFC
According to the observation of Konnra Electronics engineers, Samsung, LG, Intel and other large companies have all withdrawn from flexible screen-related products. Because of this phenomenon, flexible screens have entered people's field of vision, and the wearable devices that followed It is to make the demand for flexible circuit boards go forward. Therefore, the FPC connector produced by flexible technology has gradually become a hot spot in the market.
According to Konnra Electronics survey data, global flexible circuit board production will reach 13.2 billion US dollars in 2016, with a compound annual growth rate of 7.5%, becoming one of the fastest growing sub-professionals in the PCB profession, and further occupying the PCB in the total shopping mall. Rose to 18.4%. Flexible circuit boards are widely used in consumer electronics, car electronics, computers and peripherals, industrial equipment, communications, military and aerospace, and home appliances.
However, from the increase in power in the past two years, the demand for flexible circuit boards has risen mainly from the strong driving of consumer electronics such as smartphones, tablets and touch products. In addition, flexible printed circuit boards (FPC) are in wearable devices. The proportion of the amount used will also increase.
Many industry authorities have voiced their voices - "Smart phones, tablets, wearable devices and other compact frivolous electronic products and TVs require a large area to connect the display screens and motherboards. It is estimated that the future flexible printed circuit boards (FPC) and The proportion of the two types of adapters for flexible flat cable (FFC) will continue to increase."
Both the FPC and the FFC are both thin and flexible, and they are the most versatile connection plan for wearable devices. The difference between the two is that FPC uses chemical etching to process FCCL to obtain flexible single-sided double-sided and multi-layer flexible circuit boards. For example, Apple has reused FPC adapters in the New iPad to replace the previous cables. The FFC cable is a flat copper wire conductor sandwiched between the upper and lower layers of the insulating foil film. The manufacturing process is different, and the FFC cost is lower.

Talking about the function, classification and working principle of OTG data line

图片
  What is the OTG line? OTG is mainly applied to the connection between various devices or mobile devices for data exchange. The development of USB technology enables computers and peripheral mobile devices to transmit various data through simple USB connections. This will lead to a situation, once the mobile phone or tablet does not have a computer, we cannot manage the data of mobile devices such as mobile phones, which brings inconvenience to users. As mobile devices such as mobile phones become more and more like computers, can we imagine that we can use mobile phones as computers? Can a U disk, USB network card, etc. be connected to the phone? The answer is yes, the OTG function is to realize that the mobile phone can be connected with USB devices such as U disk, but the mobile phone has a tiny   USB   interface, which cannot meet the needs of USB ports such as U disk. So far, the OTG data cable came into being. The role of OTG is to realize data transfer between mob...

What is the coaxial connector?

图片
Coaxial connectors are used to transmit RF signals. They have a wide transmission frequency of up to 18 GHz or higher and are mainly used for radar, communication, data transmission and aerospace equipment. The basic structure of the coaxial connector includes: a center conductor (a positive or negative center contact); a dielectric material outside the inner conductor, or an insulator, and the outermost is an outer contact, which serves as a shield outside the coaxial cable. The same function of the layer, that is, the signal transmission, the grounding element as a shield or circuit. The coaxial connectors are mainly divided into: SMA, SMB, BNC, TNC, SMC, N-type, BMA, and the like. Male: Male (plug), thread inside, inside is the needle. Such as TNC (M). Female: Female (socket), threaded outside, inside is a hole. Such as SMA (F). RP: Reverse Polarity means that the head and the inside of the needle are opposite. Bulkhead: It is the joint of the lockable screw on the board and...

BNC interface protocol in video output

图片
In the following, you will be presented with a set of questions and answers about the "What protocol is going on in the BNC interface video output" and the  Konnra Electronics  engineers' Q&A record, so that you can easily understand what protocol is going on in the video output of the BNC interface in the interaction. related question. The core of the problem: What protocol is going inside the BNC interface video output? Problem Description: For example, this bnc interface video output device, BNC is the signal of the H.264 protocol, it is necessary to configure the photoelectric conversion equipment between it and the camera, how to configure it? What kind of docking can it be? Answer: The BNC interface input and output is commonly referred to as the Q9 header, which is used to transmit baseband video signals. The single BNC port of the monitoring device transmits the analog composite signal. The video recorder saves the video file of the analog video signal into...
