Key Features
- 66-position dual-row (33x2) layout on 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch for maximum signal density in tight board areas
- Tiger Eye contact technology ensures low insertion force and consistent contact resistance over hundreds of mating cycles
- Cost-optimized terminal strip construction lowers per-connector BOM cost without sacrificing Samtec's electrical or mechanical reliability
Applications
The TFC-133-02-L-D-A-K suits high-density backplane connections, embedded computing modules, and industrial I/O daughter cards requiring 66 contacts at 0.050" pitch. Tiger Eye contacts simplify mating with standard headers used across telecommunications, test instrumentation, and motor control platforms. Its dual-row configuration efficiently handles mixed signal and power routing while controlling overall connector footprint on the PCB.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the contact count and row configuration of the TFC-133-02-L-D-A-K?
The TFC-133-02-L-D-A-K features 66 contacts arranged in a dual-row (33x2) format on a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. This configuration supports dense signal routing for backplane, computing module, and industrial I/O board applications requiring many contacts in a compact space.
How does Tiger Eye contact technology in the TFC-133-02-L-D-A-K improve connector performance?
Samtec's Tiger Eye geometry in the TFC-133-02-L-D-A-K achieves low insertion force — typically under 0.3 N per contact — while maintaining secure electrical engagement across hundreds of mating cycles. This reduces hand-assembly fatigue and lowers the risk of bent contacts during field use, making it reliable for prototyping and production with 66 active positions.
When should a designer choose the TFC-133-02-L-D-A-K over a more expensive high-cycle connector?
The TFC-133-02-L-D-A-K is the preferred choice for cost-sensitive applications where mating cycles remain moderate — typically fewer than 100 insertions — and a 0.050" pitch 66-position connection is required. Its cost-effective design reduces BOM spend on industrial controllers and test fixture boards without sacrificing the electrical integrity that Samtec's standard contact plating provides.
