What are the key features of TFC-148-02-FM-D-K-TR?

  • Tiger Eye contact design provides wipe-action mating for low insertion force and reliable electrical contact even with oxidized or contaminated mating surfaces
  • 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch dual-row layout offers 96 positions in a compact footprint suited for high-density PCB designs
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging supports high-volume automated SMT pick-and-place assembly, reducing per-unit handling cost

What is TFC-148-02-FM-D-K-TR used for?

The TFC-148-02-FM-D-K-TR serves as a cost-effective high-density interconnect solution for flat flexible cable assemblies, test and measurement boards, and industrial control systems requiring 96-circuit dual-row connections. Its 0.050 inch pitch and Tiger Eye contacts are commonly deployed in embedded computing daughtercard designs and backplane expansion connectors. The tape-and-reel format makes it a preferred choice for automated production lines in consumer electronics and telecommunications hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pitch and row configuration does the TFC-148-02-FM-D-K-TR use?

The TFC-148-02-FM-D-K-TR uses a 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch in a dual-row arrangement, providing 96 total positions across 48 positions per row. This compact layout allows high-density signal routing in board-to-board or flat cable applications where space is constrained to less than 65 mm of connector length.

How does Tiger Eye contact technology improve connector reliability compared to standard stamped contacts?

Tiger Eye contacts use a dual-beam wipe-action design that achieves a typical contact resistance below 20 milliohms and self-cleans the mating surface during insertion. This wiping action compensates for surface oxidation or light contamination on flat cable conductors, maintaining reliable connectivity over thousands of mating cycles in industrial and computing environments operating from -55°C to +125°C.

When is the TFC-148-02-FM-D-K-TR preferable to a 2.00 mm pitch connector for the same circuit count?

At 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, the 96-position TFC-148 occupies approximately 60 mm of PCB rail length, compared to about 97 mm for an equivalent 2.00 mm pitch connector. Designers choose the TFC series when PCB real estate is at a premium, such as in stackable compute modules or SOM carrier boards where connector length directly impacts overall board dimensions.
