What are the key features of TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K?
- 60-position dual-row terminal strip at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch for high-density board-to-board signal interconnects
- Tiger Eye friction-mating (FM) contact design provides reliable low-insertion-force mating without secondary locking hardware
- Kinked (K) through-hole tail stabilizes the 30-positions-per-row connector on the PCB prior to soldering
- Cost-effective terminal strip architecture reduces BOM cost for high pin-count interface applications
What is TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K used for?
The TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K addresses high pin-count board-to-board interface needs in telecom line cards, industrial PLC backplanes, and embedded computing modules where 60 signal positions at 0.050" pitch are required. The friction-mating contact eliminates the need for latching mechanisms, simplifying field servicing of mezzanine boards. Kinked tails ensure the connector remains correctly positioned across all 30 positions per row during PCB soldering.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K provide and at what pitch are they arranged?
The TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K provides 60 total positions in a dual-row layout at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, with 30 positions per row. This high-density arrangement is well suited for telecom daughter cards and industrial backplanes requiring numerous signal channels in a compact connector footprint.
What is the advantage of the friction-mating (FM) contact style on the TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K compared to latching alternatives?
The friction-mating contact style on the TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K allows the 60-position connector to mate and de-mate without secondary locking hardware, reducing BOM cost and simplifying field maintenance. This is advantageous in applications where boards are replaced or reconfigured periodically, as no special tools are needed to disengage the 0.050" pitch connection.
In which embedded or industrial system designs does the TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K offer a cost advantage over premium alternatives?
The TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K is a cost-effective choice for industrial PLC I/O modules, telecom shelf cards, and embedded computing backplanes that require 60-position 0.050" pitch dual-row connectors but do not need the high-cycle-life or high-reliability contact systems of premium SAMTEC connector families.
How does the kinked tail (K) feature on the TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K improve solder joint quality?
The kinked through-hole tail on the TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K mechanically locks all 60 positions of the connector into the PCB holes before soldering, preventing rotation or lateral movement across the 1.27 mm pitch dual-row pattern. This pre-solder mechanical retention significantly reduces misalignment defects and improves first-pass solder joint quality in production.
