Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the TFC-109-02-LM-D-A-K-TR provide and what pitch does it use?
The TFC-109-02-LM-D-A-K-TR provides 18 positions in a dual-row configuration on a 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch. This fine pitch allows up to 18 signal connections in approximately 0.45 inches of board length, making it suitable for space-constrained portable electronics, medical modules, and compact industrial sensor PCBs.
What is the Tiger Eye contact technology in the TFC-109-02-LM-D-A-K-TR and why does it matter for high-cycle applications?
Tiger Eye contacts in the TFC-109-02-LM-D-A-K-TR use a dual-beam wiping contact geometry that reduces mating insertion force while ensuring consistent electrical contact across thousands of mate-unmate cycles. This low-insertion-force design reduces connector wear, which is critical in test fixtures, removable cable assemblies, and field-serviceable equipment where connectors see frequent disconnection on 18-pin harnesses.
How does the -TR suffix on the TFC-109-02-LM-D-A-K-TR affect procurement and manufacturing lead times?
The -TR suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging, which means the 18-position Tiger Eye terminal strip is supplied on a continuous reel compatible with automated pick-and-place SMT equipment. This packaging format reduces per-unit handling time in production, supports standard IPC-7711 reel specifications, and typically allows shorter kitting lead times compared to bulk-packaged alternatives for volume orders above 1000 pieces.
