Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions and what pitch does the TFC-132-02-FM-D-A-K support?
The TFC-132-02-FM-D-A-K provides 64 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration with 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch. This high-density layout allows engineers to route 64 signals across two rows in a compact footprint, making it suitable for space-constrained board interconnect designs.
Which PCB interface designs benefit most from using TFC-132-02-FM-D-A-K over single-row alternatives?
Dual-row designs like the TFC-132-02-FM-D-A-K are preferred when board space is at a premium and 64 signals must be transferred in a minimal area. Applications such as FPGA daughtercards, backplane interconnects, and industrial I/O modules benefit from the 0.050 inch pitch dual-row layout because it reduces connector length by roughly 50% compared to a single-row 64-pin alternative.
What makes the Tiger Eye contact design of TFC-132-02-FM-D-A-K reliable for repeated mating cycles?
SAMTEC Tiger Eye contacts use a dual-beam wiping action that cleans oxide layers from mating pins during each insertion, maintaining low contact resistance across many cycles. The floating mount (FM) variant accommodates up to ±0.5 mm of board-to-board misalignment, reducing mechanical stress on solder joints over the connector's service life.
