What are the key features of TFC-114-02-F-D?

  • 28-position dual-row terminal strip at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, doubling contact density versus standard 0.100" pitch connectors
  • Tiger Eye cost-effective contact design with gold flash mating surface balances reliability and cost for moderate-cycle applications
  • Tin (Sn) with nickel (Ni) barrier termination contacts deliver lead-free, corrosion-resistant solder joints compatible with reflow profiles up to 260°C
  • Dual-row layout accommodates 28 signal lines in a minimal PCB footprint, ideal for compact embedded and instrumentation boards

What is TFC-114-02-F-D used for?

The TFC-114-02-F-D is used in board stacking and wire-to-board applications within embedded controllers, test and measurement instruments, and industrial I/O modules requiring a 28-position 0.050" pitch interface at a cost-effective price point. Its dual-row gold flash contacts provide sufficient reliability for prototyping and low-to-medium volume production in commercial-grade environments. The compact terminal strip form factor is well-suited for SOM carrier boards, sensor breakout modules, and modular peripheral expansion designs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many signal lines does the TFC-114-02-F-D accommodate, and how does its 0.050" pitch compare to a standard 0.100" pitch connector in terms of board space?

The TFC-114-02-F-D provides 28 positions at a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch in a dual-row layout, fitting all 28 contacts within approximately 14 mm of connector length. A comparable 0.100" pitch single-row connector would require nearly 28 mm to carry the same number of signals, making the TFC-114-02-F-D roughly half the board footprint—critical for space-constrained PCB designs.

What contact finish does TFC-114-02-F-D use and for how many mating cycles is it rated?

The TFC-114-02-F-D uses gold flash (approximately 3 micro-inches of gold) on mating contacts, providing reliable low-resistance connections rated for up to 50 mating cycles. The termination contacts use tin (Sn) with a nickel (Ni) barrier, preventing tin whisker growth and ensuring strong solder joint integrity for standard lead-free SMT reflow processes at up to 260°C.

Which embedded or modular system designs benefit most from the TFC-114-02-F-D 28-position terminal strip?

The TFC-114-02-F-D at 0.050" pitch and 28 positions is particularly well-suited for FPGA evaluation daughtercards, SOM-to-carrier board interfaces, and multi-channel sensor breakout modules where more than 20 signal lines must pass between boards. It is also a strong choice for modular industrial I/O systems needing up to 28 mixed digital and analog signal connections in a compact connector footprint under 15 mm in length.

How does the Tiger Eye series TFC-114-02-F-D compare in cost and performance to SAMTEC's premium gold-plated terminal strips?

The Tiger Eye TFC-114-02-F-D offers a significantly lower cost per contact compared to SAMTEC's premium fully gold-plated FTS or MEC series while maintaining the same 0.050" pitch and dual-row layout. The trade-off is mating cycle durability—gold flash rated at approximately 50 cycles versus hundreds of cycles for fully gold-plated contacts—making the TFC-114-02-F-D the preferred choice for prototype, evaluation, or low-frequency-connection production designs where cost reduction per 28-position connector matters.
