Key Features
- 98 positions in dual rows at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch achieves maximum signal density for high-bandwidth board-to-board and mezzanine SMT designs
- Tiger Eye dual-beam gold-plated contacts ensure low-insertion-force mating and consistent electrical performance over many mating cycles
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enables fully automated SMT pick-and-place assembly, reducing handling cost in high-volume production lines
Applications
The TFC-149-02-L-D-K-TR is designed for high-density mezzanine and board-stacking interconnect in servers, networking switches, and data storage systems where up to 98 signal or power lines must be routed at 0.050 inch pitch. Its dual-row layout efficiently manages wide bus interfaces and power delivery in space-constrained PCB stacks. The tape-and-reel format makes it well-suited for high-volume SMT manufacturing in communications and industrial electronics production.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions and what pitch does the TFC-149-02-L-D-K-TR provide for high-density SMT mezzanine designs?
The TFC-149-02-L-D-K-TR provides 98 positions in a dual-row arrangement at a fine 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, enabling very high signal and power density for mezzanine stacking, server daughter-cards, and networking PCB designs where space is at a premium.
What advantage does tape-and-reel packaging offer for the TFC-149-02-L-D-K-TR in production environments?
The tape-and-reel (TR) suffix on the TFC-149-02-L-D-K-TR pre-stages each 98-position connector on carrier tape at 0.050 inch pitch, allowing automated SMT pick-and-place machines to handle the part without manual intervention. This reduces placement cycle time and lowers assembly cost for high-volume PCB production in communications and industrial electronics manufacturing.
When would a designer choose the TFC-149-02-L-D-K-TR over a standard 0.100 inch pitch strip for a mezzanine application?
A designer selects the TFC-149-02-L-D-K-TR when 98 signals must be routed between stacked PCBs but the available connector footprint on each board is limited. At 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, this strip occupies roughly half the board length of an equivalent 0.100 inch pitch connector, making it the right choice for compact server blades, FPGA mezzanine cards, and high-density networking modules.
