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.

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.
