What are the key features of TFC-102-02-FM-D-A-K?
- 4-position dual-row (2x2) layout on 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch provides a minimal-footprint interconnect for small signal or power connections
- Tiger Eye contact geometry delivers low insertion force for easy manual mating in prototyping and low-cycle-count field applications
- Cost-effective terminal strip design minimizes connector spend on simple 4-pin board-to-board or wire-to-board connections
What is TFC-102-02-FM-D-A-K used for?
The TFC-102-02-FM-D-A-K is ideal for small signal or power distribution connections on sensor modules, small controller boards, and evaluation platforms where only 4 contacts at 0.050" pitch are needed. Its minimal 2x2 footprint conserves PCB space for surrounding circuitry, making it well suited for IoT nodes, wearable devices, and compact embedded systems. The cost-effective Tiger Eye design reduces connector cost on high-volume consumer and industrial boards that use numerous small interconnects.

Frequently Asked Questions
For a 4-contact power rail on a sensor module, how does the TFC-102-02-FM-D-A-K's 0.050" pitch benefit space-constrained designs?
At 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, the TFC-102-02-FM-D-A-K's 2x2 contact array occupies only about 2.54 mm x 2.54 mm of board space, roughly one-quarter the footprint of an equivalent 0.100" pitch connector. This compact profile leaves more PCB area for sensors, microcontrollers, or power components on densely populated sensor modules and IoT nodes.
How many mating cycles is the TFC-102-02-FM-D-A-K designed to handle reliably?
The TFC-102-02-FM-D-A-K Tiger Eye contact system is rated for moderate-cycle applications, typically up to 50 to 100 mating cycles, making it suitable for evaluation boards, prototyping setups, and infrequently serviced field devices. Its 4 contacts and low insertion force allow repeated mating without significant increase in contact resistance over its rated life.
When is the TFC-102-02-FM-D-A-K a lower-cost alternative to a standard 4-pin 0.050" premium connector?
The TFC-102-02-FM-D-A-K is the preferred lower-cost alternative when mating cycle requirements are below 100 insertions and contact current per pin stays within Samtec's rated 1 A range. High-volume consumer IoT, wearable sensor, and compact industrial boards benefit most, as the cost-effective design can reduce 4-pin connector BOM cost by 20% to 40% versus premium-grade alternatives.
