Key Features
- 64-position dual-row configuration on 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch for high-density signal bus routing
- LM low-profile mating contact style reduces overall mated stack height in space-constrained designs
- Tiger Eye dual-beam technology ensures 2 contact points per pin for robust, intermittent-free connections
Applications
The TFC-132-02-LM-D-A-K is designed for high-density board-to-board signal routing in FPGA evaluation boards, data-acquisition systems, and industrial communication modules where 64 pins must interconnect within a 1.27 mm pitch envelope. Its low-profile mating contact style supports slim multi-board stack designs in rack-mount and embedded computing equipment where vertical clearance between boards is limited.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 64-position count of TFC-132-02-LM-D-A-K support wide parallel bus interfaces in FPGA designs?
The TFC-132-02-LM-D-A-K's 64 positions at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch can carry a complete 64-bit data bus or two independent 32-bit buses through a single dual-row connector. This eliminates the need for two 32-position connectors, saving PCB area and reducing assembly cost in FPGA daughter card applications.
What does the LM suffix indicate on TFC-132-02-LM-D-A-K and how does it affect mated board spacing?
The LM suffix denotes a low-profile mating contact style, which reduces the connector's mated height compared to standard or elevated contact configurations. For the TFC-132-02-LM-D-A-K, this allows a board-to-board mated spacing as tight as 3 mm to 4 mm, supporting compact multi-board assemblies in instruments and embedded systems with strict height budgets.
Is TFC-132-02-LM-D-A-K a cost-effective alternative to high-end high-density connectors for prototype and low-volume production?
Yes, the TFC series is Samtec's cost-effective Tiger Eye line, offering 64-position dual-row connectivity at 1.27 mm pitch at a lower price point than high-reliability mil-spec connectors while maintaining dual-beam Tiger Eye contact performance. For prototype quantities of 10 to 100 units, the cost savings over comparable high-spec 64-pin connectors can be substantial without sacrificing signal integrity.
