What are the key features of TFC-108-02-F-D?
- 16-position dual-row board stacking connector at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch for high-density signal routing
- Tiger Eye contact technology with gold flash mating surface delivers reliable low-resistance connections at reduced cost
- Tin (Sn) with nickel (Ni) barrier termination contacts resist corrosion and provide robust solder joint reliability
- Cost-effective Tiger Eye design offers a budget-friendly alternative to premium contacts without sacrificing contact integrity
What is TFC-108-02-F-D used for?
The TFC-108-02-F-D is suited for board stacking applications in consumer electronics, industrial control modules, and compact embedded systems where a 0.050" pitch 16-position interface is required. Its gold flash mating contacts make it an economical choice for prototyping and moderate-volume production runs. The dual-row layout enables high signal density in space-constrained PCB designs such as SOM carrier boards and expansion modules.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pitch and position count does the TFC-108-02-F-D offer, and how does it compare to standard 0.100" connectors?
The TFC-108-02-F-D features a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch with 16 positions in a dual-row layout, achieving twice the contact density of a standard 0.100" pitch connector in the same board length, making it ideal for compact board stacking designs where space is limited.
What contact finish does the TFC-108-02-F-D use for mating and termination, and what are the reliability implications?
The TFC-108-02-F-D uses gold flash (3 micro-inches) on mating contacts and tin (Sn) with a nickel (Ni) barrier on termination contacts. Gold flash provides low contact resistance below 20 milliohms and corrosion resistance for moderate mating cycles, while the nickel barrier prevents tin whisker migration into the contact interface.
Is the TFC-108-02-F-D compatible with lead-free soldering, and what current rating should designers expect per contact?
Yes, the TFC-108-02-F-D is RoHS-compliant and compatible with lead-free soldering at peak temperatures up to 260°C. Each contact is rated to carry approximately 1 A of current at 0.050" pitch, supporting typical logic and low-power signal applications in industrial and consumer board stacking designs.
When would a designer choose TFC-108-02-F-D over a higher-end gold-plated SAMTEC connector for a board stacking interface?
A designer would choose the TFC-108-02-F-D Tiger Eye cost-effective series when the mating cycle count is under 50 cycles, the operating environment is non-corrosive, and the design budget is constrained. At 0.050" pitch with 16 positions, it delivers 16 signal lines in under 12 mm of board length at a significantly lower cost than fully gold-plated alternatives.
