The flexible printed circuit, FPC in short, is a printed cable of high density and reliability. The FPC has many advantages as light, thin and small, bendable and foldable, which is good for freely customized and assembled. See the closest example from a cable manufacturing factory here. They once customized cables for a small size of Toshiba module, with the general specification 4.8mm x 4.8mm x 1.0mm. 

On how to put flexible printed circuit cable into use, based on an electronic cable investigation, the findings indicate the following major features of printed circuit cables and boards.

 

First of all, technically, the patterning has repeatability and consistency, which cut off the discrepancy on cable layout and assembly. Meanwhile, in equipment maintenance, debugging, and inspection, time will not be wasted for large quantity assembly.

 

Secondly, designs can be standardized, which is good for exchange.

 

Thirdly, the layout of cable has a high density, a small volume, a light weight, which is benefitial for miniaturization of electronic devices.

 

Fourthly, printed circuti board's application is helpful for mechanization and automation production, which sharply increases the productivity and the lower the prices for electronic devices.

 

Finally,  particularly due to FPC cable's flexibility and high density, the cables can be widely used in highly precise electronic instruments, such as digital camera, cellphone etc.

 

The above can be summarized as the below: the flexible printed circuit, FPC in short, is a printed cable of high density and reliability. The FPC has many advantages as light, thin and small, bendable and foldable, which is good for freely customized and assembled. See the closest example from a cable manufacturing factory here.
