What are the key features of TFC-131-02-LM-D-A?

  • 62-position dual-row configuration at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch enables dense signal routing in space-limited PCB areas
  • Low-profile LM body style reduces stacking height in board-to-board and mezzanine assembly configurations
  • Tiger Eye contacts deliver consistent low insertion force and stable contact resistance over repeated mating cycles

What is TFC-131-02-LM-D-A used for?

The TFC-131-02-LM-D-A is suited for embedded system mezzanine interfaces, signal distribution cards, and IoT gateway modules where 62 positions of dual-row connectivity are needed on a 1.27 mm pitch. Its low-profile LM style minimizes overall board-stack height in compact enclosures. This terminal strip is commonly used in modular industrial controllers and portable computing platforms requiring reliable multi-signal board-to-board links.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the total pin count and row arrangement of TFC-131-02-LM-D-A?

The TFC-131-02-LM-D-A provides 62 total positions arranged in a dual-row format, with 31 pins per row on a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. This dual-row layout is effective for routing both signal and ground return paths in parallel across mezzanine board interfaces, and the 1.27 mm pitch footprint is compatible with standard SMT land patterns used in most PCB design tools.

How does the LM body style benefit height-constrained electronic assemblies?

The LM (low profile mating) body style of the TFC-131-02-LM-D-A reduces the vertical height of the mated connector pair compared to standard profile versions. In compact embedded systems where total board stack height must remain below a specific mechanical envelope, the LM style can reduce the connector contribution to stack height by several millimeters, allowing integration in thin enclosures or tightly packed multi-board modules with clearance constraints of less than 5 mm.

Can TFC-131-02-LM-D-A be used as a lower-cost alternative to higher-specification board-to-board connectors?

Yes, the TFC-131-02-LM-D-A is a cost-effective Tiger Eye terminal strip suitable as an alternative to premium board-to-board connectors in applications with moderate cycle life requirements, typically fewer than 50 mating cycles. For 62-position dual-row interfaces running signals below 500 MHz, the 1.27 mm pitch Tiger Eye design meets most functional requirements at a lower per-unit cost than high-reliability alternatives, making it attractive for budget-sensitive consumer and industrial product designs.
