Product details

Tiger Eye IDC Receptacle for 28 AWG Ribbon Cable

The Samtec TCSD-08-01-N is a 16-position, dual-row IDC receptacle from the Tiger Eye™ TCSD series, designed for mass-termination to 28 AWG ribbon cable. The 0.079" (2.00 mm) pitch and matching 0.079" (2.00 mm) row spacing align directly with standard 16-conductor ribbon cable, making this a drop-in interconnect for board-to-cable harnesses where the signal count matches the circuit count. A push-pull fastening type secures the mate, and the polarizing key prevents misalignment during assembly.

It is specified for 28 AWG wire, which is the standard gauge for 0.079" pitch ribbon cable. The polarizing key and feed-through feature allow the cable to pass straight through the connector body, which simplifies routing in a harness.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between TCSD-08-01-N and TCSD-08-01-F-N?

The primary difference is the contact finish thickness. Both are 16-position, dual-row IDC receptacles with the same 0.079" (2.00 mm) pitch and push-pull latching. The -N variant is better suited for applications requiring higher mating cycle life or improved corrosion resistance.
