Key Features
- 4 positions in dual rows at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch for ultra-compact SMT board-to-board interconnect in tight PCB footprints
- Male contacts with tin-over-nickel (Sn/Ni) finish provide corrosion resistance and reliable electrical contact in board connector applications
- Tiger Eye cost-effective design from SAMTEC delivers consistent mating performance while optimizing procurement cost for high-volume production
Applications
The TFC-102-02-F-D-A is well-suited for compact daughter-card and mezzanine connections in embedded systems, IoT modules, and sensor boards where only 4 pins are needed at a 0.050 inch pitch. Its small dual-row footprint enables routing of power and signal lines between PCB layers or stacked boards in space-constrained housings. Design engineers also use it on evaluation and breakout boards requiring a standard fine-pitch SMT terminal interface.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pin count and pitch does the TFC-102-02-F-D-A use, and what contact finish is provided?
The TFC-102-02-F-D-A has 4 positions in a dual-row configuration at a 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, with male contacts finished in tin over a nickel barrier, delivering corrosion-resistant and reliable connectivity for compact SMT board-to-board applications in IoT and embedded systems.
How does the 0.050 inch pitch of the TFC-102-02-F-D-A compare to standard 0.100 inch pitch connectors for compact PCB designs?
The TFC-102-02-F-D-A's 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch occupies roughly half the board area of a conventional 0.100 inch pitch connector, making it the preferred choice when 4 signal or power lines must be routed in a minimal PCB footprint for IoT modules, sensor boards, and mezzanine stacking applications.
For which procurement scenarios is a SAMTEC Tiger Eye cost-effective strip like the TFC-102-02-F-D-A preferred over premium connector lines?
The TFC-102-02-F-D-A is preferred when a design requires a reliable 4-pin, 0.050 inch pitch male SMT connector without the cost premium of high-cycle or ruggedized series. Its tin-over-nickel contact finish meets standard board connector performance requirements, making it economical for medium-volume production runs where repeated mating cycles beyond a few hundred are not required.
