Key Features
- 26-position dual-row Tiger Eye terminal strip at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch for moderate-density board interfaces
- Cost-effective Tiger Eye contact design reduces per-unit connector cost without sacrificing mating reliability
- Low-profile surface mount (LM) termination minimizes board height for slim and stacked PCB assemblies
- Keyed (-K) option prevents misalignment during mating, reducing risk of connector or PCB damage
Applications
The TFC-113-02-LM-D-A-K is used in moderate-density board-to-board interconnect applications such as embedded systems, industrial sensor modules, and compact consumer devices. Its 26-position dual-row design on a 0.050" pitch provides 26 signal contacts in a low-profile SMT form factor ideal for slim enclosures. The keyed option ensures correct orientation during board mating, which is especially valuable in field-replaceable module designs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the -K suffix mean on the TFC-113-02-LM-D-A-K, and why does it matter?
The -K suffix on TFC-113-02-LM-D-A-K designates a keyed connector, meaning it has a mechanical polarization feature that prevents incorrect insertion during mating. In a 26-position dual-row connector with 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch contacts, accidental reverse mating could short adjacent pins or damage the PCB, so keying is a critical safety feature for field-serviceability and automated assembly environments.
How does the LM (low-profile mount) version of the TFC-113 differ from a standard mount in board height?
The LM designation in TFC-113-02-LM-D-A-K indicates a low-profile surface mount termination style that reduces the connector's standoff height compared to standard or elevated mount options. This smaller vertical clearance—typically under 2 mm above the PCB surface—allows the 26-position strip to be used in slim, space-constrained assemblies such as handheld devices, wearable modules, and compact industrial controllers where vertical board clearance is at a premium.
When is TFC-113-02-LM-D-A-K a more cost-effective option than higher-spec SAMTEC terminal strips?
The TFC-113-02-LM-D-A-K belongs to SAMTEC's Tiger Eye cost-effective series, which trades certain premium plating or material options for a lower unit price while maintaining the 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch 26-position contact reliability. It is the right choice when the design does not require gold flash on all contacts or ultra-high-cycle mating above 200 cycles, making it suitable for consumer, industrial, and telecommunications designs where BOM cost reduction is a primary goal.
