What are the key features of TFC-149-02-F-D-A?
- 98-position dual-row layout at 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch enabling very high pin density
- Tiger Eye contact design offering low-insertion-force and reliable electrical connection
- Cost-effective terminal strip construction optimized for high-volume production
- Compact footprint ideal for FPC, FFC, and ribbon cable board interfaces
What is TFC-149-02-F-D-A used for?
The TFC-149-02-F-D-A is designed for high-density interconnect applications in computing modules, data acquisition systems, and telecommunications equipment where up to 98 signal lines must pass through a small PCB footprint. Its 0.050" pitch dual-row layout supports parallel data buses, multi-channel analog front ends, and modular board-to-board stacking architectures. The Tiger Eye contact design ensures reliable mating in both automated and manual cable assembly environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many contact positions does the SAMTEC TFC-149-02-F-D-A provide, and how are they arranged?
The TFC-149-02-F-D-A provides 98 contact positions arranged in a dual-row configuration at 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch, with 49 pins per row. This layout maximizes signal density within a compact footprint, supporting applications that require simultaneous routing of many parallel data, power, or control signals.
For a high-speed parallel data bus needing 96 lines, how does the TFC-149-02-F-D-A fit the requirement?
The TFC-149-02-F-D-A offers 98 positions at 1.27mm pitch, providing 2 spare contacts beyond the 96 needed for a parallel bus, which can be used for ground or power. The dual-row 0.050" pitch design fits the bus within a PCB length of roughly 62mm, far more compact than a 2.54mm pitch connector carrying the same signal count.
What is the Tiger Eye contact technology in the TFC-149-02-F-D-A, and what benefit does it offer?
Tiger Eye is SAMTEC's proprietary contact geometry that uses a dual-beam wiping action to ensure reliable electrical contact during mating. This results in low and consistent contact resistance, even after many insertion cycles, making it suitable for applications with frequent cable disconnects such as field-serviceable instruments and modular test fixtures.
In what scenarios would the TFC-149-02-F-D-A be a better procurement choice than a higher pin-pitch connector?
The TFC-149-02-F-D-A at 0.050" pitch is the better choice when the PCB layout budget cannot accommodate a 0.100" pitch connector carrying 98 lines, which would require nearly double the board length. It is also preferred when interfacing with standard 1.27mm pitch flat flexible cables or ribbon cables used in industrial scanners, medical imaging modules, and embedded computing carrier boards.
