Frequently Asked Questions
What pin count and pitch does the TFC-141-02-FM-D-A-K provide for high-density interconnects?
The TFC-141-02-FM-D-A-K offers 82 total positions in a dual-row arrangement with 0.050" (1.27 mm) contact pitch. This combination allows designers to route a very large number of signals through a compact PCB area, making it suitable for server backplanes and high-density data acquisition systems.
How does the Tiger Eye contact design benefit the TFC-141-02-FM-D-A-K in cost-sensitive applications?
The Tiger Eye contact technology provides consistent, low-resistance mating through a cost-optimized contact geometry. In applications where 82-position dual-row connectivity at 0.050" pitch is needed but premium gold plating is not required, the Tiger Eye design reduces per-unit connector cost while still maintaining reliable electrical contact over multiple mating cycles.
For which types of PCB layouts does the 82-position TFC-141-02-FM-D-A-K offer an advantage over multiple smaller connectors?
Using a single TFC-141-02-FM-D-A-K instead of multiple lower-position-count connectors reduces the total number of connector footprints on the board, freeing up routing channels. The 82 positions at 0.050" pitch in a single dual-row strip simplify assembly, lower component count, and reduce potential failure points compared to using four or more 20-position connectors to achieve the same signal count.
