Does anyone know the relationship and difference between fpc, pcb, and ffc?

1. The relationship between FPC, PCB and FFC

FPC refers to flexible circuit board, PCB refers to printed circuit board, and FFC refers to flexible flat cable.

Flexible flat cables are often used in circuits of flexible circuit boards and printed circuit boards. Both flexible circuit boards and printed circuit boards are important electronic components and are supports for electronic components.

2. The difference between FPC, PCB and FFC

1. Different nature

fpc: fpc is a flexible circuit board.

PCB: PCB is a printed circuit board.

ffc: ffc is a flexible flat cable.

2. Different manufacturing processes

FPC: FPC is made of polyimide or polyester film as the base material.

PCB: PCB is made through steps such as copper deposition, pattern transfer, pattern electroplating, film stripping, etching, and molding.

FFC: FFC is made of PET insulation material and extremely thin tinned flat copper wire, which are pressed together through a high-tech automated equipment production line.
