Key Features
- 94-position dual-row configuration at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch supporting very high signal density in a single connector footprint
- Low-profile (-L) vertical height option reducing stack height in slim mezzanine and module-to-baseboard assemblies
- Tiger Eye dual-beam contact design ensuring reliable electrical connection through repeated mating cycles with contact resistance under 30 milliohms
- Tape-and-reel (-TR) packaging for fully automated SMT pick-and-place assembly in high-volume manufacturing
Applications
The TFC-147-02-L-D-A-K-TR is used in high-density mezzanine stacking, FPGAs daughter-card connections, and multi-channel data acquisition boards where 94 signals must be routed between parallel PCBs in a compact assembly. Its low-profile designation makes it especially suited for slim embedded computing modules such as COM Express, SMARC, and custom SOM baseboard applications where vertical height budgets are under 5 mm. The tape-and-reel format supports seamless integration into automated SMT production lines for embedded systems and communications infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many electrical positions does the TFC-147-02-L-D-A-K-TR provide and how are they arranged physically?
The TFC-147-02-L-D-A-K-TR provides 94 positions in a dual-row layout with 47 contacts per row at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, yielding a connector body length of approximately 60 mm. This arrangement allows simultaneous routing of multiple address, data, control, and power signals between stacked PCBs without requiring multiple smaller connectors, simplifying board layout and reducing bill-of-materials complexity in high-density embedded designs.
What does the low-profile (-L) designation mean for stack height in mezzanine board designs?
The -L suffix indicates a low-profile vertical mating height, typically targeting a board-to-board stack height of around 2 mm to 4 mm above the PCB surface. For slim embedded modules such as COM Express Type 6 or custom SOM designs where total assembly thickness must remain under 8 mm, the TFC-147-02-L low-profile variant provides 94 signal paths while keeping the mezzanine PCB much closer to the baseboard than standard-height connector alternatives.
For a high-speed FPGA daughter card needing 94 I/O routes, why might this connector outperform a 0.100 inch pitch alternative?
At 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, the TFC-147-02-L-D-A-K-TR fits a 94-position dual-row footprint into roughly half the PCB area required by a 0.100 inch pitch connector of equivalent position count. For FPGA daughter cards where routing channels around connector pads are already congested, reducing the connector area by approximately 50% can eliminate layer transitions and shorten differential pair stubs by several millimeters, improving signal integrity at data rates above 1 Gbps.
Can the TFC-147-02-L-D-A-K-TR be procured directly from standard distribution and what packaging quantity should buyers expect?
Yes, the TFC-147-02-L-D-A-K-TR is available through SAMTEC's global authorized distribution network with typical tape-and-reel quantities of 500 to 2,500 pieces per reel, depending on the specific reel configuration. Lead times from stock are generally under 2 weeks for standard quantities. Custom reel quantities and cut-tape samples are available directly from SAMTEC for prototyping, with minimum order quantities as low as 1 piece for sample requests.
