Frequently Asked Questions

What is the pitch and position count of the TFC-103-02-FM-D terminal strip?

The TFC-103-02-FM-D is a 6-position dual-row terminal strip with a 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, accommodating 3 positions per row in the Tiger Eye format, making it a compact and cost-effective choice for board-to-board or board-to-cable connections in space-constrained embedded and IoT PCB designs.

What contact plating and environmental compliance does the TFC-103-02-FM-D offer?

The TFC-103-02-FM-D uses tin (Sn) plating over a nickel (Ni) barrier on its male contacts and carries a JESD-609 e3 RoHS-compliant lead-free code, ensuring reliable solderability, corrosion resistance across 6 positions, and compliance with European and global environmental directives for commercial and industrial electronics.

How does the Tiger Eye design of the TFC-103-02-FM-D benefit prototyping and low-cost production applications?

The Tiger Eye contact design in the TFC-103-02-FM-D provides a cost-effective alternative to gold-plated connectors by using a carefully engineered tin contact geometry that maintains consistent mating reliability across 6 positions while reducing material cost, making it well-suited for development boards, breakout modules, and production designs with moderate insertion cycle requirements.

Which SAMTEC mating connector families are compatible with the TFC-103-02-FM-D?

The TFC-103-02-FM-D at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch is compatible with SAMTEC's Tiger Eye cable socket and receptacle families, enabling designers to pair the 6-position dual-row board connector with standard SAMTEC 1.27 mm pitch mating housings and crimp contacts for complete cable assembly solutions in compact PCB-to-wire connection scenarios.
