Flat Flex Cable Assembly OptionsEMI Suppression Options 

High performance Flat Panel Display (FPD) with operating frequencies at 400MHz are common place. To minimize the bandwidth EMI noise sources at this frequency, Meritec offers both ferrite and shielding solutions for cost effective EMI suppression.

Ferrite Options Ferrite Part Number Impedance at 25 MHz/100MHz Can be used on X” wide cable 07 35/85 ohms 0.70" 03 50/103 ohms 0.79" 04 20/40 ohms 0.79" 05 133 ohms (at 100 MHz) 0.90" 06 208 ohms (at 100 MHz) 0.93" 08 14/42 ohms 1.040"

Shielding Options Aluminum Foil Shielding laminated to Mylar ® insulation of the flat flex cable. The foil is .001" thick with .005" of clear Mylar insulation. Select conductors within the FFC can be grounded directly to the shield. Drain wires are also an option.

Conductive Silver Ink Shielding applied to the Mylar surface of the FFC can provide effective EMI suppression while allowing for maximum flexibility of the cable for more dynamic applications. Select conductors within the FFC can be grounded directly to the shield.

Patterned Conductive Silver Ink Shielding applied to the Mylar surface of the FFC in a cross-hatch pattern can provide effective EMI suppression while maintaining cable flexibility and higher impedance values favorable to LVDS applications. Select conductors within the FFC can be grounded directly to the shield.

Mylar ® is a registered trademark of the DuPont Company

Additional Options• Length and fold specifications

• Transition boards for various pitch applications

• ChassisLoc for panel mounting

• SnapLoc for positive retention to the PCB

• Solder prep for direct attachment to the PCB

Environmental Specs• Material – U.L. Flame rating 94V – 1

• Temperature rating – –40 °C to +105 °C

Cable Specifications• Insulator – Polyester (FFC)

• Plating – Tin Bismuth

• Minimum bend radius – 0.020" (FFC)

• Length tolerances – < 12" ± .10" ≥ 12" ± 0.25"
