Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions and rows does the TFC-129-02-FM-D-K-TR provide, and what is the pin pitch?
The TFC-129-02-FM-D-K-TR provides 58 total positions arranged in a dual-row (2-row) configuration with a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch between adjacent pins. This high pin count and fine pitch make it well suited for dense board-to-board interconnect designs where space is limited and signal density is high.
For which high-density interconnect scenarios is the TFC-129-02-FM-D-K-TR a better fit than a standard 0.100" pitch connector?
In applications where PCB real estate is limited, the TFC-129-02-FM-D-K-TR's 0.050" pitch uses roughly half the board area of a standard 0.100" pitch connector for the same 58-pin count. This makes it preferable for compact telecommunications modules, networking blades, and embedded computing boards where a 2-row, 58-position header at 1.27 mm pitch delivers the required signal density in a smaller footprint.
Does the tape-and-reel packaging of the TFC-129-02-FM-D-K-TR support automated assembly, and what volumes are typically available?
Yes, the TR suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging specifically designed for automated SMT pick-and-place machines, enabling high-volume production without manual handling. SAMTEC typically offers tape-and-reel quantities in thousands of pieces per reel, making the TFC-129-02-FM-D-K-TR suitable for production runs requiring consistent 58-position dual-row connectors at 0.050" pitch.
What is the Tiger Eye contact technology in the TFC-129-02-FM-D-K-TR and how does it affect mating reliability?
SAMTEC's Tiger Eye contact technology uses a leaf-spring contact design that provides controlled normal force during mating, ensuring reliable electrical connections even after multiple insertion cycles. The FM (female) contacts in the TFC-129-02-FM-D-K-TR engage mating male pins over 58 positions with consistent contact resistance, reducing the risk of intermittent connections in applications subjected to vibration or repeated field servicing.
