What are the key features of TFC-143-02-FM-D-A?
- 86-position dual-row female socket (FM) at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch delivering 86-channel connectivity for high-density board-to-board applications
- Cost-effective Tiger Eye construction providing reliable performance at a lower price point than premium SAMTEC connector families for volume production
- Dual-row layout with 43 positions per row maximizing contact count per unit of connector body length in space-constrained PCB designs
- SAMTEC TFC-series compatibility for use with matching TFC male headers in modular daughter card and backplane interconnect architectures
What is TFC-143-02-FM-D-A used for?
The TFC-143-02-FM-D-A is used in server and storage backplanes, high-density industrial I/O expansion boards, and telecom equipment line cards where 86-position dual-row connectivity at 0.050 inch pitch is required in a cost-effective package. Embedded computing modules, FPGA development boards, and data acquisition systems use this connector for high channel-count signal buses, address lines, and power rails across board-to-board interfaces. Its Tiger Eye design makes it practical for mid-to-high volume production where premium connector pricing is not justified.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can TFC-143-02-FM-D-A fit within an embedded equipment interconnect?
As a 86-pin SAMTEC connector, TFC-143-02-FM-D-A can link compact PCBs or modules when the circuit pinout, mating half, stack dimension, and electrical limits are compatible.
How can the PCB team avoid using a generic but incorrect footprint?
Build the land pattern from the current manufacturer drawing, confirming all 86 pins, row spacing, orientation, solder geometry, and required mechanical clearance for assembly.
For lifecycle planning, how should buyers document this connector choice?
Document the full TFC-143-02-FM-D-A ordering code, its 86-pin arrangement, contact finish, termination and packaging suffixes, approved sources, and traceable manufacturer lots in the BOM.
