Frequently Asked Questions
What contact finish and material does TFC-120-02-L-D use for mating reliability?
The TFC-120-02-L-D uses gold-plated (10 microinch) mating contact surfaces over phosphor bronze base material, providing excellent electrical conductivity and resistance to oxidation across many mating cycles. The termination side uses tin with a nickel barrier, ensuring reliable solder joint formation during SMT or wave soldering processes for the 40-position dual-row interface.
How does the shrouded housing on TFC-120-02-L-D protect contacts in board stacking assemblies?
The shrouded housing encloses the 40 male contacts at 0.050 inch pitch, protecting them from physical damage during PCB handling, assembly, and insertion. It also guides the mating connector into correct alignment, reducing the risk of bent or misaligned pins in high-density board stacking configurations where 40 dual-row positions must engage simultaneously.
What lead time and lifecycle information is available for TFC-120-02-L-D procurement planning?
The TFC-120-02-L-D has a factory lead time of 2 weeks and 1 day, with an YTEOL (years to end of life) rating of 8.65 years, indicating a stable, long-lifecycle product suitable for multi-year production programs. It is RoHS and Pb-free compliant, which is important for procurement teams managing environmental compliance requirements across global supply chains.
In what board stacking designs does TFC-120-02-L-D offer an advantage over wider-pitch alternatives?
The TFC-120-02-L-D excels in designs where board stacking density must be maximized within a constrained footprint. At 0.050 inch pitch with 40 positions, it provides 80 total contacts in a smaller area than equivalent 0.100 inch pitch connectors, making it preferable for mezzanine cards, daughter boards, and compact multi-board assemblies in rack-mount or embedded computing equipment.
