[0002] Automotive FPC connectors are connectors used to connect flexible printed circuits (FPCs) or flexible electronic devices. They play a key role in electrical connections in automotive electronic equipment, and are even more widely used in the field of new energy vehicles. New energy vehicles have a much greater demand for electronic components than traditional vehicles, especially for key systems such as battery management systems (BMS), motor controllers, and vehicle controllers. FPC connectors play a vital role in these systems, not only enabling efficient energy and signal transmission, but also improving system reliability and stability. According to industry analysis, as the new energy vehicle market continues to expand, market demand for FPC connectors will continue to grow. Existing connectors use a flat cable at the center that connects the connectors on both sides, mostly made of a flexible material to accommodate the complex environment inside a car. However, after connecting the two connectors, the flexible flat cable is prone to bending, which affects signal transmission efficiency.
