You can get ready made adapter boards from many places such as ebay, amazon, aliexpress etc. eg. 1mm and 0.5mm FPC FFC adapters, converter breakout boards for prototyping | eBay It breaks out the FPC cable connections to a double row of plated through holes with 2.54 mm (0.1”) spacing, making it suitable for use in prototyping perfboard or connecting with DuPont jumper wires. www.ebay.co.uk 5.56US $ 5% OFF|2pcs Flexible Flat Cable Ffc Fpc Connector Adapter 16 Pin 1.0 Mm To 2.54 Mm Pitch 16 P 2x8 Pin Through Holes Dip Pcb Converter - Connectors - AliExpress Smarter Shopping, Better Living!
