- Full Frame Images (FFI, ffi.fits): These files contain the long cadence time series of the entire field of view, both an uncalibrated and calibrated version are available.
- Target Pixel Files (TPF, .tp.fits): These files contain a time series of the raw and calibrated pixels downloaded at the 2-minute cadence.
- Light Curve Files (LCF, .lc.fits): These files contain the flux time series derived from the calibrated short-cadence pixels. These files contain several time series including the simple aperture photometry, a conditioned detrended light curve where common signals have been removed, position vectors and quality flags.
- Cotrending Basis Vectors (CBV, .cbv.fits): The cotending basis vectors represent the set of systematic trends present in the ensemble light curve data for each CCD and can be used to remove common instrumental systematics from the data. These vectors are created by the pipeline to create the detrended flux time series in the light curve files.

TESS provides several catalogs of target stars in order to choose which stars will be observed at the 2-minute cadence.
