What are the key features of TFC-119-02-FM-D?

  • 38 dual-row positions on 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch for high-density board-to-board interconnect in compact PCB footprints
  • Tiger Eye contact design provides reliable 1A-per-pin current rating with gold-plated termination for low-contact-resistance mating
  • Cost-effective terminal strip format compatible with standard SAMTEC 0.050" pitch mating receptacles, reducing BOM cost versus custom connectors

What is TFC-119-02-FM-D used for?

The TFC-119-02-FM-D is widely used in backplane, daughter-card, and test-fixture interconnect designs where a large number of signal lines must be routed across 0.050" pitch board-to-board interfaces. Its 38-position dual-row format supports up to 76 contacts per connector, making it efficient for FPGA peripheral boards, embedded computing modules, and instrumentation front-end assemblies. The gold-plated Tiger Eye contacts ensure reliable mating cycles in engineering prototypes and production test jigs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many positions and rows does the TFC-119-02-FM-D connector provide on its 0.050" pitch?

The TFC-119-02-FM-D is a 38-position dual-row connector on a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, providing 76 total contacts per assembly. This high-density layout is well-suited for FPGA expansion cards and embedded computing daughter boards where dozens of signal and power lines must cross a board-to-board interface in a footprint under 60 mm long.

What current rating per pin does the TFC-119-02-FM-D Tiger Eye contact support?

Each Tiger Eye contact in the TFC-119-02-FM-D is rated at 1A per pin at room temperature. With 76 contacts available, the assembly can distribute up to 76A aggregate if load-shared across all pins, though thermal derating applies above 25°C. Gold-plated termination minimizes contact resistance and maintains stable conductivity over thousands of mating cycles.

Which mating SAMTEC receptacles are compatible with the TFC-119-02-FM-D terminal strip?

The TFC-119-02-FM-D mates with SAMTEC's standard 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch receptacle families, including the TFM and SFM series, which are available in dual-row configurations from 2 to 50+ positions. Using matched SAMTEC 0.050" pitch pairs ensures alignment tolerances within ±0.1 mm and a recommended insertion force of approximately 0.3 N per contact.

In what PCB design scenarios is TFC-119-02-FM-D preferable to a 0.100" pitch connector?

When board space is limited and signal counts exceed 40, the TFC-119-02-FM-D's 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch cuts the connector footprint roughly in half compared to a 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch alternative. This space savings is critical in multi-layer PCBs for test instrumentation, RF front-end modules, and industrial single-board computers where routing 76 signals through a 2.54 mm pitch header would consume too much board real estate.
