Product catalog summary
Introduction to Flexible Printed Cable (FPC):
Flexible Printed Cable (FPC) is a type of cable that utilizes printed circuit board manufacturing technology to laminate conductor and insulation materials. It is designed to offer low inductance, high heat dissipation, and flexibility, making it suitable for high-frequency applications.
Key Features:
  • Low Inductance: Achieved through a multilayer structure that cancels magnetic fields, resulting in stable power supply and voltage drop suppression.
  • High Heat Dissipation: Ensures efficient thermal management during high current conduction.
  • Flexibility and Bendability: Allows integration into tight spaces and replacement of traditional bus bars and harnesses.
Product Types:
  • High Current Type: Designed for applications requiring high current capacity.
  • Low Inductance Type: Optimized for applications needing stable high-frequency conductivity.
Applications:
  • Space-saving power supply for electric vehicle components like inverters and ECUs.
  • Semiconductor manufacturing equipment requiring stable high-frequency conductivity.
Performance Testing:
Temperature rise tests were conducted at various current levels (50A, 70A, 100A) to measure the thermal performance of the FPC. Inductance measurements were also performed using an impedance analyzer across frequencies from 50 Hz to 110 MHz, comparing FPC with general-purpose cables.
Notice:
Performance and results are not guaranteed, and specifications may change without prior notice.

Flexible Printed Cable-1

Flexible Printed Cable What is FPC? Flexible Printed Cable is made by applying printed circuit board manufacturing technology to laminate conductor and insulation materials. In general cables, the skin effect occurs during AC conduction, causing the resistance value to rise. This unique multilayered structure brings better skin effect and provides a higher power supply capacity. Also low inductance can be achieved due to the canceling effect of the magnetic field by the multilayer structure. The product can be custom-made to suit your application. Product types & Features High Current Type Conductor Insulator / Polyimide Connecting terminal - High heat dissipation - High flexibility - Bendable Magnetic field Low inductance can be achieved due to the canceling effect of the magnetic field by the multilayer structure. Mutually cancel each other out. - Low inductance during high frequency conduction (lesst than 110MHz) Expecting Application - Integration into tight spaces - Replacement of bus bars and harnesses - Space-saving power supply for EV components such as inverters and ECU - Requires stable high-frequency conductitity such as Semiconductor manufacturing equipment
