Applications
The TFC-107-02-FM-D-A-K-TR is suited for cost-sensitive, volume production PCB assemblies requiring 14-pin board-to-board connectivity at 1.27 mm pitch with SMT reflow compatibility. It is used in consumer electronics, IoT gateway modules, and compact industrial controllers where automated pick-and-place processes benefit from the tape-and-reel packaging. The Tiger Eye contact geometry provides a reliable and economical interconnect solution for signal lines running at frequencies below 500 MHz.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the tape-and-reel packaging of TFC-107-02-FM-D-A-K-TR benefit high-volume PCB production?
The -TR suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging, which allows automated SMT pick-and-place equipment to handle the 14-position connector continuously without manual loading. This reduces assembly cycle time, maintains consistent component orientation for accurate 0.050" pitch placement, and minimizes handling-related damage during high-volume reflow soldering production runs.
What is the per-contact current rating of the TFC-107-02-FM-D-A-K-TR and how should power pins be allocated?
Each contact is rated at 1.0 A continuous current. For the 14-position dual-row configuration, designers typically assign 2 to 4 contacts as dedicated power and ground lines, leaving the remaining contacts for signal use. Bundling multiple contacts for a single power rail is a standard technique to safely handle currents above 1.0 A in compact board stacking designs.
Which compact board-to-board applications are best matched to the 14-position TFC-107-02-FM-D-A-K-TR?
Applications requiring modest pin counts in small form factors are ideal, including IoT sensor modules, wireless communication daughter boards, and compact industrial sensor interfaces. The 14-position, 0.050" pitch connector occupies minimal board area while delivering 14 independent signal or power paths, making it well suited to wearable electronics and handheld device stacking designs.
When does the Tiger Eye contact design in TFC-107-02-FM-D-A-K-TR represent a better procurement choice than SAMTEC's high-reliability SFM series?
The Tiger Eye design is the better choice when signal frequencies stay below 500 MHz, mating cycle counts are under 200 cycles, and unit cost is critical. The SFM high-reliability series is warranted for applications demanding longer mating life exceeding 500 cycles or tighter controlled impedance at multi-GHz frequencies. For standard IoT and consumer electronics with moderate lifecycle requirements, the TFC series delivers adequate performance at a lower cost per position.
