Description

►FPC membrane switch
FPC Membrane switch ,FPC membrane keypad,FPC membrane panel, FPC membrane button.

►Basic info
FPC membrane switch has better conductivity and longer work life than silver film switch. The normally thickness of the copper foil is 1 ounces. Total FPC thickness is about 1.35mm.

►Structure presentation

►FPC membrane advantages compared with silver film switch
①Low resistance（10% of silver film switch）
②load large current（Normally 1Acurrent/0.5mm line）
③Components(LED and resistance)can be welded more firmly
④Good oxidation resistance, suitable for humid environment
⑤The connector at the end of cable can be made to smaller to save space.

►Electrical performance
Circuit voltage：DC 50V MAX (others need meet components）
Circuit current：1A MAX
Closed circuit resistance：normally <10 ohm（details see products designing and circuit length）
Button working life：>0.5 million times
Response time:<10 mS

►Notice on mounting and operation
①Clean up the surface where the switch is bonded and make sure it is flat,without rust,oil and dust.
②Compare the size to membrane switch where need be stick ,check if position is correct.
③Tear off 10mm length of the bottom release paper from side.
④ Put the tail through the back board. Please do not pull the tail with force. The minimum bending radian of the lead wire is R=2mm. The hold edge must smooth in case of damaging the tail.
⑤Align the panel with the sticking place and press on the fixed part, then slowly remove the rest release paper and flat the panel.
⑥The stick process is finished in one time.Switch can not be repeated stick.
⑦Please make sure the bending angel of panel is lower than 15 degree when sticking.
⑧Please do not pull the connector so hard when in connection. For female connector, please hold the house when in connector.
⑨Do not pull the lead wire directly. For FPC( Flexible printed circuits) structure, please unlock the socket before plugging.
⑩Note:To assure the switch life,please put it on the table flatly when testing the hand feeling.Do not pinch the button when holding it on hand.
