Key Features
- 68-position dual-row terminal strip at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch with phosphor bronze contacts plated 15 microinch gold for reliable, low-resistance mating in high-cycle applications
- PEG board mounting option secures the connector mechanically to the PCB prior to soldering, ensuring alignment accuracy across all 68 through-hole contacts
- Matte tin (Sn) termination finish on solder tails provides excellent wettability for wave or hand soldering processes in standard PCB assembly environments
Applications
The SAMTEC TFC-134-02-L-D-A-K is ideal for FPGA daughter card interfaces, DSP module stacking, and industrial embedded computing backplanes that require 68 signal lines at 0.050 inch pitch with gold contact reliability. Its dual-row male pin format with PEG mounting suits high-volume PCB production where mechanical stability during assembly is critical.

Frequently Asked Questions
What contact finish does the TFC-134-02-L-D-A-K use and why does it matter for signal integrity?
The TFC-134-02-L-D-A-K uses 15 microinch gold plating on mating contact surfaces over phosphor bronze, which provides low and stable contact resistance across 68 positions and supports reliable signal integrity in high-cycle mating applications such as FPGA test fixtures and module interconnects at 0.050 inch pitch.
How does the PEG mounting feature of the TFC-134-02-L-D-A-K simplify board assembly?
The PEG board mounting feature on the TFC-134-02-L-D-A-K mechanically locks the 68-position 0.050 inch pitch connector to the PCB during soldering, preventing movement or tilt of the 1.825 inch body that would cause misalignment of the dual-row through-hole contacts in wave solder or hand solder assembly.
Is TFC-134-02-L-D-A-K a direct alternative to TFC-134-02-F-D-A-K for FPGA mezzanine designs?
The TFC-134-02-L-D-A-K (L = standard through-hole pin) and TFC-134-02-F-D-A-K (F = surface-mount or alternate termination) share the same 68-position 0.050 inch pitch dual-row Tiger Eye format, so they mate with the same SAMTEC receptacles; the choice depends on whether your PCB process uses through-hole or SMT assembly for the 68-pin connector footprint.
