Board-to-board connectors provide direct connection between FPC and board
Panasonic has commercialized a connector with a unique structure that allows direct connection between an automotive FPC (flexible printed circuit) and the board. This connector eliminates the need for wire harnesses previously needed for connection, allowing the use of fewer components and fewer assembly person-hours for vehicles, as well as making room for improved design […]
Miniaturized electronics pose board connector challenges
Wearable and mobile electronics are getting smaller, and that’s a big problem. Their lack of internal space makes it difficult to find electrical components that will not only fit, but also perform reliably. This difficulty can be particularly noticeable when it comes to board level connectors. You can now source high-density connectors with terminal pitches […]
