Flat Flexible Cable 0.5mm, 1mm and 1.25mm Pitch Flat Flexible Cables consist of flat tin plated copper conductors insulated between Polyester based tapes. Depending on the type of interconnection used, reinforcement tapes can be added to the cable ends to allow for connector compatibility. Features: Flat flexible cable for use with FFC/FCP range of connectors Reinforcing tape bonded to underside for cable to ensure easy and accurate insertion into the connector Overall length 210mm Type Of End: Type Of Reinforcement Standard Polyester reinforcement tapes (blue or red) for termination with connectors.

As this notion is dependant on the type of product, rather than on the application, it is better suited than the alternative notion of Shielding Efficiency, given in dB, for accurately defining shield specifications. For the shielding of flat cables, the best compromise between good electromagnetic protection, light weight, good flexibility and a reasonable cost has been achieved with 10m Aluminium foils which are wrapped around the flat cable to assure 360 coverage. This shield is grounded to one or several conductors by welding. Typical Shape Of The Transfer Impedance Comparison Of The Transfer Impedance *SE = Shielding efficiency : equivalent to a 50 load. www.element14.com www.farnell.com www.newark.com www.cpc.co.uk Page <2> 19/03/13 V1.0
