Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions and what pitch does the SAMTEC TFC-119-02-F-D-A-K provide?
The TFC-119-02-F-D-A-K is a 38-position dual-row terminal strip with a 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch. This compact spacing enables high-density signal routing on PCBs where space is limited, supporting up to 38 independent signal lines in two rows of 19 pins each.
What contact plating does the TFC-119-02-F-D-A-K use, and how does it affect signal reliability?
The TFC-119-02-F-D-A-K uses gold-plated contacts, which provide excellent corrosion resistance and stable contact resistance over thousands of mating cycles. Gold plating is especially important for low-voltage digital signals where even small resistance variations can affect data integrity in high-speed communication systems.
Which applications are best served by the SAMTEC TFC-119-02-F-D-A-K terminal strip?
This 38-position, 0.050" pitch connector is ideal for telecommunications backplanes, embedded computing modules, and test instrumentation where high pin density is required within a small PCB footprint. The Tiger Eye termination style accommodates flexible ribbon cables and board stacking configurations commonly found in industrial control and data acquisition systems.
When should a designer choose the TFC-119-02-F-D-A-K over a wider-pitch alternative?
A designer should choose the TFC-119-02-F-D-A-K when board space is constrained and 38 signals must be routed within the footprint that a 0.100" pitch connector would use for only 19 positions. The 1.27mm pitch halves the connector length compared to 2.54mm alternatives, enabling more compact PCB designs without sacrificing pin count.
