What are the key features of TFC-116-02-F-D-A-K?
- 32-position dual-row male board connector at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch for cost-effective high-density interconnection
- Tiger Eye contact design provides economical reliable mating with consistent low insertion force across all 32 positions
- 1.0 A per contact current rating supports simultaneous signal and power rail connections on a single connector
- Male contact gender enables direct mating with SAMTEC SFM or TFC female socket strips for flexible system design
What is TFC-116-02-F-D-A-K used for?
The TFC-116-02-F-D-A-K is used in cost-optimized board stacking applications such as industrial sensor modules, programmable logic controller expansion boards, and embedded computing daughter cards requiring 32-pin connectivity at 1.27 mm pitch. Its Tiger Eye male contacts mate reliably with compatible female socket strips, enabling modular board architectures where sub-assemblies can be plugged together. The 32-position dual-row configuration fits naturally into parallel data bus interfaces and mixed analog-digital signal routing on compact PCBs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What contact gender and pitch does the TFC-116-02-F-D-A-K use for board-to-board mating?
The TFC-116-02-F-D-A-K uses male contacts at a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch arranged in 32 positions across 2 rows. These male contacts are designed to mate with compatible SAMTEC female socket strips such as SFM or TFC-F series, enabling modular plug-in board stacking in industrial and embedded computing assemblies.
How much current can the TFC-116-02-F-D-A-K carry and how should power contacts be assigned?
Each contact is rated at 1.0 A continuous current. With 32 positions available, engineers typically assign 4 to 6 contacts for power and ground distribution and use the remainder for signal lines. Grouping adjacent contacts for a single power rail is standard practice to scale effective current capacity beyond 1.0 A without exceeding individual contact ratings.
For which industrial expansion card designs does the 32-position TFC-116-02-F-D-A-K provide the best fit?
The 32-position configuration is well suited to PLC expansion modules, industrial sensor interface cards, and compact motor control boards where a moderate pin count covers both data bus signals and local power rails. The 1.27 mm pitch keeps the connector footprint compact enough to fit standard 100 mm card widths while providing 32 discrete signal or power connections per mated pair.
How does the Tiger Eye contact design in TFC-116-02-F-D-A-K reduce total cost of ownership compared to higher-specification alternatives?
Tiger Eye contacts are manufactured using a cost-optimized stamping process that reduces per-unit connector price compared to SAMTEC's premium high-frequency or high-reliability contact series. For applications with signal frequencies below 500 MHz and modest mating cycle requirements under 200 cycles, the TFC-116-02-F-D-A-K delivers adequate electrical performance at a lower bill-of-materials cost, making it the preferred choice for volume production cost-sensitive designs.
