Flat Flexible Circuits (FFC)

Materials

Conductors
Copper is the most widely used conductor and it is typically flat, allowing extended flex life. Copper conductor options include:

• Bare copper
• Tin plated copper

Adhesives
Adhesive selection depends on customer needs and conductor thickness. Common adhesives include:

• Pressure Sensitive Adhesives
• Acrylic

Insulators
Flexible substrate (base) and cover lay materials are available in a variety of thicknesses. Common insulators include:

• Polyester
• PEN
• PET

Finishes
The final finish depends on each customer’s assembly requirements and the application of the finished product. Common finishes include:

• Tin

Shielding
A protective shielding layer can be applied if required. Common shielding materials include:

• Conductive silver ink
• Aluminum or copper tape
