What are the key features of TFC-119-02-F-D-A?
- 38-position dual-row layout on 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch delivers ultra-high pin density for compact board-to-board or board-to-cable signal routing
- Tiger Eye contact technology ensures reliable wiping action and low contact resistance below 20 mOhm across a minimum of 30 mating cycles
- Cost-effective (CE) terminal strip design targets high-volume production with SAMTEC quality at a competitive per-pin price point
- Vertical through-hole (F) mount with dual-row (D) configuration simplifies PCB layout for parallel signal buses and expansion port connectors
What is TFC-119-02-F-D-A used for?
TFC-119-02-F-D-A is ideal for high-density board interconnects in embedded computing, industrial controllers, and FPGA evaluation platforms where 38 signals must be routed across a connector measuring less than 25 mm in length. Its Tiger Eye contacts and cost-effective construction make it a practical choice for GPIO expansion, JTAG, and parallel bus interfaces on PCBs where space is at a premium. The fine 0.050 inch pitch also suits data acquisition front-ends and communication module sockets in compact rack-mounted instruments.

Frequently Asked Questions
How compact is the TFC-119-02-F-D-A footprint, and what routing advantage does 0.050 inch pitch provide over 0.100 inch alternatives?
At 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, the TFC-119-02-F-D-A spans approximately 24.1 mm for 38 dual-row positions, half the 48.3 mm a 0.100 inch pitch equivalent would require. This 50 % length reduction frees critical PCB real estate on 4-layer boards running 6-mil trace widths, allowing designers to route 38 signals through a connector zone under 25 mm and leave room for decoupling capacitors and ground vias within the same 30 mm board section.
How does TFC-119-02-F-D-A differ from TFC-121-02-LM-D-A, and which mounting style is better for low-profile designs?
TFC-119-02-F-D-A uses a vertical (F) through-hole mount, standing perpendicular to the PCB surface, whereas TFC-121-02-LM-D-A uses a left-angle (LM) mount that lies parallel to the board, keeping connector height below 6 mm. The vertical mount is preferred when the mating connector approaches from above in card-cage or stacked-board architectures, while the left-angle variant suits enclosures with a maximum internal height clearance of 8 mm.
For which signal types and speed ranges is TFC-119-02-F-D-A most appropriate as a board interconnect solution?
TFC-119-02-F-D-A is best suited for single-ended digital signals up to 500 MHz, including SPI, I2C, UART, JTAG, and parallel GPIO buses where per-lane data rates stay below 1 Gbps. At these speeds the 0.050 inch pitch geometry introduces less than 2 pF of contact capacitance per pin, acceptable for most embedded logic interfaces. For differential SerDes signals above 2.5 Gbps, a controlled-impedance SAMTEC high-speed connector with 50 Ohm matched contacts should be used instead.
