Key Features
- 60-position dual-row layout at 1.27 mm (0.050") pitch with 30 contacts per row delivers high-density interconnect in a 1.625 inch board length
- Gold-plated (15 microinch) mating contacts over phosphor bronze ensure low contact resistance and reliable performance across thousands of mating cycles
- Polarization key (K) prevents incorrect mating orientation, critical for 60-pin interfaces where a single misalignment can damage all contacts
- Lead-modified (LM) SMT termination with matte tin finish improves coplanarity for consistent reflow solder joints across all 60 contact positions
Applications
The TFC-130-02-LM-D-A-K is used in dense board-to-board, mezzanine, and I/O expansion interconnect applications in embedded computing, industrial automation, and test systems. With 60 positions at 1.27 mm pitch, gold-plated contacts, and a polarization key, it is ideal for wide parallel buses, sensor interfaces, and modular system backplanes requiring reliable, guided mating in SMT assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What contact plating does the TFC-130-02-LM-D-A-K use, and how does it affect mating reliability?
The TFC-130-02-LM-D-A-K uses 15 microinch gold plating on its mating contacts over a phosphor bronze base. This gold finish provides excellent corrosion resistance and low contact resistance, supporting reliable signal integrity across many mating cycles in the 60-position dual-row configuration.
What physical dimensions does the TFC-130-02-LM-D-A-K have, and how does that affect PCB layout planning?
The TFC-130-02-LM-D-A-K has a body length of 1.625 inches, a breadth of 0.225 inches, and a depth of 0.226 inches. These dimensions must be accounted for during PCB layout to ensure adequate keep-out zones around the connector body, particularly for the 60-position dual-row footprint at 1.27 mm pitch.
When is TFC-130-02-LM-D-A-K a stronger choice than a 2.54 mm pitch equivalent for a 60-signal interface?
At 1.27 mm (0.050") pitch, the TFC-130-02-LM-D-A-K occupies a board length of 1.625 inches for 60 positions, which is approximately half the length a 2.54 mm pitch connector would require for the same pin count. This makes it the preferred choice when PCB real estate is limited and the design calls for gold-plated contacts with SMT assembly compatibility.
