Frequently Asked Questions
What contact finish does the TFC-110-02-F-D-A use, and how does it affect mating reliability?
The TFC-110-02-F-D-A uses gold flash over nickel as the mating contact finish, with tin over nickel as the termination finish. Gold flash over nickel provides corrosion resistance and low contact resistance for reliable signal integrity. The shrouded Tiger Eye contact system adds mechanical retention to ensure positive mating engagement even in vibration-prone environments.
What are the physical dimensions and pin configuration of the TFC-110-02-F-D-A board stacking connector?
The TFC-110-02-F-D-A has a body length of 1.125 inches and a body breadth of 0.225 inches. It is a dual-row receptacle (indicated by the -D suffix) with 10 positions per row totaling 20 pins, designed for board stacking applications. The shrouded housing prevents mismating and provides mechanical keying between mating board assemblies.
In which board stacking applications does the Samtec Tiger Eye system offer advantages over standard pin header connectors?
The Tiger Eye system provides a wiping action during mating that clears contaminants from contact surfaces, improving reliability in industrial and aerospace environments with 100 or more mating cycles. Standard pin headers without the Tiger Eye design are prone to fretting corrosion and increased contact resistance over repeated mating cycles, making TFC-series connectors preferred for test equipment, modular avionics, and reconfigurable embedded computing platforms with 20-pin dual-row stacking needs.
What is the factory lead time for the TFC-110-02-F-D-A, and is it RoHS compliant?
The TFC-110-02-F-D-A has a factory lead time of 1 week from Samtec, which is notably short compared to many specialty connectors. It is fully RoHS compliant (Pbfree Code: Yes), meaning it meets EU RoHS Directive requirements for lead-free construction, making it suitable for products sold in European markets and other regions with lead-free electronics regulations.
