Key Features
- 28 positions at 0.050" (1.27 mm) dual-row pitch in a compact form factor suited for space-constrained PCB designs
- Flat machined tails (-FM) combined with kinked pins (-K) enable precise PCB registration and reliable solder joint formation
- Tape-and-reel (-TR) packaging supports high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly for efficient production throughput
Applications
The TFC-114-02-FM-D-A-K-TR is ideal for high-volume automated assembly of compact embedded modules, sensor interface boards, and industrial control PCBs requiring 28-pin dual-row 0.050" pitch connectivity. Tape-and-reel packaging reduces manual handling and improves placement repeatability on high-speed pick-and-place machines. Its compact 28-position footprint suits designs where a smaller connector count replaces several discrete pin headers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the -TR suffix on TFC-114-02-FM-D-A-K-TR indicate for purchasing and assembly?
The -TR suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging. This format holds the 28-position connectors in a continuous carrier tape on a reel, enabling automated pick-and-place machine loading without manual part handling. Tape-and-reel packaging is commonly specified for production orders of hundreds or thousands of parts, reducing assembly cost per unit and minimizing placement errors at 0.050" pitch.
How do flat machined tails differ from standard stamped tails on the SAMTEC TFC-114-02-FM-D-A-K-TR?
Flat machined (-FM) tails are produced by precision machining rather than stamping, resulting in tighter dimensional tolerances across all 28 pins. This improves through-hole alignment during PCB insertion and creates more consistent solder fillet geometry, which is especially important for reliability in high-vibration or thermally cycled industrial environments.
How does the 28-pin TFC-114-02-FM-D-A-K-TR fit into a broader SAMTEC TFC connector family selection?
Within the SAMTEC TFC series at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, the TFC-114 covers the lower end of the pin count range at 28 positions, making it suitable for interface cards with fewer than 30 signal lines. For designs requiring more signals, the TFC series scales up to 96 positions, with each pin rated at 1 A, allowing engineers to select the exact position count their application requires.
