What kind of flex flat cable is this? (for resistive touchscreen assembly)

[naut]

Hello,

I have a Cowon-D2 mp3 player and the flat ribbon cable (4 signal lines) that is connected to the resistive touch screen assembly has cracked, (shown with the red line) on the attached pic.

Does anyone know what kind of flat ribbon cable is displayed in the picture?

Or perhaps what resistive touchscreen overlay assembly model it is? The small text on the bottom reads "atouch ao25-3d e8". But I could not find such a touchscreen module.

Thanks!

For a touch overlay,    You take the screen size meausrments and try to find a resistive or a capacitive overlay that match the screen size

It depends how much you want to pay ??

Phewww... It took me a while but I've fixed the cable. Not sure how long it's going to hold so I've ordered some 4 pin 1.0mm pitch flex cables just in case.

Thanks for the links. I've seen the whole display assemblies but it's overkill in this case. As far as the overlays, I was not able to find out exactly the one that would fit the display module.

Pretty sure that isn't a cable, its a flex pcb.

It's FFC (Flexible flat cable)  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexible_flat_cable. Carbon traces on kapton substrate. Often also called FPC cable (flexible printed circuit) although it's technically not correct as there are no components.
