Abstract
Embodiment relates to a flat flexible printed circuit and, more specifically, to a flat flexible printed circuit which is flexible, due to the inclusion of films, and on which a surface mount technology (SMT) terminal can be mounted. According to the embodiment, the flat flexible printed circuit includes a film material capable of withstanding high temperatures, and thus can be electrically connected to an external device in a high-temperature environment and, as a result, is highly versatile.
Claims16
A flat flexible printed circuit comprising:
- a cable part including a first film, a plurality of conductors disposed on the first film, and a second film attached to the first film so as to face the plurality of conductors;
- a first connector part disposed at an end of the cable part and electrically connected to the plurality of conductors to an external device;
- a terminal connection part formed by perforating a portion of the first film to expose at least one of the plurality of conductors such that a surface-mount terminal can be connected to the at least one of the plurality of conductors, wherein the terminal connection part includes a support line which physically supports a connection of the surface-mount terminal using the at least of the plurality of conductors not electrically connected to the surface-mount terminal;
- an inspection part located in a direction toward the first connector part from the terminal connection part, the inspection part being formed by perforating a portion of the first film corresponding to the at least one of the plurality of conductors so as to allow electrical inspection of the at least one of the plurality of conductors, wherein the inspection part is arranged in a number equal to a number of conductors connected to the surface-mount terminal;
- a penetration part located at a predetermined distance from the terminal connection part in a direction opposite to the first connector part, the penetration part perforating the at least one of the plurality of conductors and corresponding areas of the first film and the second film to disconnect the at least one of the plurality of conductors after a position where the at least one of the plurality of conductors is electrically connected to the terminal connection part;
- and a support part which penetrates a portion of the cable part excluding the terminal connection part to support the cable part on the external device.
