Key Features
- 8-position dual-row layout at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch provides a minimal-footprint solution for low pin-count board-to-board interfaces
- Tiger Eye contact technology ensures consistent low insertion force and stable contact resistance across repeated mating cycles
- Cost-effective terminal strip design reduces BOM cost for designs where only 4 pins per row are needed
Applications
The TFC-104-02-L-D-A-K is suited for small-scale board-to-board signal interfaces in sensor modules, LED driver boards, and compact IoT devices that require only 8 positions. Its 0.050" pitch dual-row footprint delivers reliable connectivity in tight PCB layouts typical of wearable electronics and miniature embedded controllers. This terminal strip is also used for auxiliary signal routing between main boards and small daughter cards in industrial and consumer applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many pins per row does TFC-104-02-L-D-A-K provide and at what pitch?
The TFC-104-02-L-D-A-K provides 8 total positions in a dual-row format, giving 4 pins per row at a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. This low pin-count configuration is ideal for compact signal interfaces between a main PCB and small daughter boards, such as sensor breakout cards or status LED modules, where only a few signal and power lines need to cross the board-to-board interface.
In which compact embedded designs is TFC-104-02-L-D-A-K most commonly applied?
The TFC-104-02-L-D-A-K is frequently used in miniaturized embedded systems such as wearable sensor nodes, IoT edge devices, and compact industrial controllers where 8-pin dual-row connectivity at 1.27 mm pitch fits into tight PCB layouts. It is also well-suited for auxiliary interfaces on development boards and evaluation kits, providing 4 signals per row for UART, SPI, or I2C connectivity between a host board and a small add-on module.
When is TFC-104-02-L-D-A-K a better choice than a single-row 8-pin connector for the same signal count?
For a given 8-pin count, the TFC-104-02-L-D-A-K's dual-row layout at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch reduces the connector's PCB footprint length by approximately 50% compared to a single-row 8-pin connector at the same pitch. This makes the dual-row version preferable in PCB designs where connector length along one axis must be minimized, such as narrow module formats or board sections with components placed within 5 mm of the connector edge.
