Frequently Asked Questions
What contact material and finish does the TFC-116-02-L-D-A-K use for mating and termination?
The TFC-116-02-L-D-A-K uses phosphor bronze contact material with 15 microinch gold plating on the mating surface and matte tin (Sn) finish on the termination side. The gold mating finish ensures low and consistent contact resistance across all 32 positions, while matte tin terminations provide excellent solderability in standard lead-free reflow assembly processes.
How does the Tiger Eye design of TFC-116-02-L-D-A-K benefit high-density PCB interconnect layouts?
The Tiger Eye connector design in TFC-116-02-L-D-A-K provides a cost-effective solution for 32-position dual-row interconnects at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, enabling 32 signal or power channels in a compact 0.925 inch body length. The dual-row layout doubles contact density compared to single-row alternatives of the same footprint length, making it ideal for space-constrained embedded computing boards, industrial controllers, and daughter card interfaces.
What role does the PEG mounting option play in the TFC-116-02-L-D-A-K assembly process?
The PEG board mounting option on TFC-116-02-L-D-A-K provides a mechanical peg that inserts into a PCB hole to lock the connector in position before and during soldering. This ensures the 32-position dual-row connector remains precisely aligned at 0.050 inch pitch during reflow, preventing misalignment that could result in bridging or cold joints across the matte tin termination contacts, and improving first-pass yield in automated assembly.
When is TFC-116-02-L-D-A-K the right choice over higher-specification SAMTEC alternatives in the same pitch?
TFC-116-02-L-D-A-K is ideal when a design requires reliable 32-pin dual-row connectivity at 0.050 inch pitch but has budget constraints that rule out premium connectors with heavier gold plating or exotic materials. The Tiger Eye series is engineered for cost-effective production volumes where 15 microinch gold mating contacts on phosphor bronze provide sufficient contact life for typical 100 to 500 mating cycle use cases in embedded systems, industrial I/O, and test fixture applications.
