Frequently Asked Questions
How many signal positions does TFC-107-02-LM-D-A support and on what pitch for dense PCB routing?
TFC-107-02-LM-D-A provides 14 positions on a 0.050-inch pitch in a dual-row male configuration, enabling high-density signal routing across a connector body roughly half the length of an equivalent 0.100-inch pitch strip. This makes it well-suited for SoC daughtercards, sensor modules, and embedded controller interfaces with limited board edge space.
What mechanical advantage does the Tiger Eye contact in TFC-107-02-LM-D-A provide for vibration-prone applications?
The Tiger Eye dual-beam contact applies 2 independent spring forces against the mating socket, maintaining electrical contact even if one beam deflects slightly due to vibration or thermal expansion. This redundant 2-point contact mechanism keeps resistance stable across the 14-pin interface in automotive accessories, robotics joints, and industrial field sensors subject to continuous mechanical vibration.
When does a designer choose TFC-107-02-LM-D-A over a 14-position 0.100\" pitch alternative for space-limited board designs?
TFC-107-02-LM-D-A is chosen when the available PCB connector zone is shorter than 0.75 inches but still requires 14 signal connections, as its 0.050-inch pitch body occupies approximately half the footprint of a 0.100-inch pitch equivalent. This trade-off is practical for wearable devices, portable meters, and miniaturized IoT nodes where every millimeter of PCB length reduces the enclosure size.
How does TFC-107-02-LM-D-A's low-cost construction compare to precision terminal strips for high-volume production budgets?
SAMTEC's cost-effective TFC series uses standard stamped contacts and simplified housing compared to high-precision or impedance-controlled terminal strips, reducing per-unit connector cost without sacrificing the Tiger Eye dual-beam contact reliability for DC and low-frequency signal lines. For designs with 14 channels ordered at 5000 or more pieces, the TFC series typically offers a 20-30% cost reduction versus precision alternatives with equivalent mechanical mating performance.
