FPC is a flexible and foldable printed circuit board based on polyimide or polyester film, which has high reliability and excellent flexibility. The advantages of soft board FPC are: small size and light weight, suitable for high-density, miniaturization and lightweight electronic product design. It is highly flexible and can move and expand arbitrarily in three-dimensional space, realizing the integration of component assembly and wire connection. Good heat dissipation performance can reduce the operating temperature of the circuit and improve the stability and life of the circuit. Save space and materials, reduce the number of circuit board layers and connectors, and reduce costs and repair rates.
FPC has the characteristics of small size, light weight, and bendability. It fits the popular trend of lightweight electronic products and is widely used in consumer electronics such as smartphones, tablets, and PCs. Later, with the popularity of emerging products such as new energy vehicles, AR/VR, and wearable devices, the application field of FPC has been further expanded. At the end of the 20th century, affected by the transfer of FPC industries in the United States and other places, the FPC industry in countries or regions such as Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, China grew rapidly and became the main production base of FPC in the world. Domestic FPC companies have a short development time and are restricted by funds, scale, technology reserves, and upstream and downstream. There is still a certain gap in comprehensive competitiveness with international leading companies. Thanks to the flexibility, lightness, reliability, and excellent electrical performance of FPC, the application scenarios of FPC are constantly expanding, especially the innovative development of consumer electronics, automotive electronics, medical equipment, industrial automation, aerospace, new energy and energy storage, 5G communications, etc., providing possibilities for the in-depth development of FPC. For example, in the field of smartphones, FPC can be applied to modules such as antennas, camera modules, screen connections, fingerprint recognition, battery connections, and wireless charging; in the field of automotive electronics, FPC can be applied to modules such as battery management systems (BMS), sensors, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), and in-vehicle entertainment systems; in the medical field, FPC can be applied to modules such as portable medical devices and wearable health monitoring devices; in the industrial field, FPC can be applied to modules such as sensors and actuators, robots, and industrial computers. The diversified development of application scenarios has driven the continued growth of FPC market demand.
Integration and lightweight are the two core advantages of FPC. In terms of integration, FPC can reduce the number of connectors or traditional wiring harnesses, simplify the assembly process, and can also be designed into a multi-layer structure. Metallized holes are formed by drilling and electroplating to achieve conductive connections between different layers, achieve high-density wiring in a limited space, reduce the distance between electronic components and improve overall performance. In terms of lightweight, FPC uses thin substrates such as polyimide (PI) film to reduce the space occupied and weight of equipment. If a car uses FPC flexible flat wiring harness instead of traditional wiring harness, the overall weight of the wiring harness will be reduced by about 50% and the volume will be reduced by about 60%. Therefore, with the advantages of integration and lightweight, the penetration rate of FPC in terminal applications such as smartphones and automotive electronics will continue to increase.
