What are the key features of TFM-105-03-F-D-LC?

  • 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch dual-row 5-position layout supports 10 signal contacts in a compact footprint for high-density PCBs
  • Tiger Eye contact technology delivers reliable wiping action and consistent 0.050" pitch mating across thousands of insertion cycles
  • Low-clearance (LC) body profile minimizes stack height above the PCB, enabling tighter board-to-board spacing in mezzanine assemblies

What is TFM-105-03-F-D-LC used for?

The TFM-105-03-F-D-LC is suited for compact board-to-board and mezzanine interconnect designs in telecommunications infrastructure, industrial control, and embedded computing. Its 0.050" pitch dual-row configuration provides 10 signal contacts in a minimal PCB footprint, making it a strong choice for applications where board space is limited. The low-clearance profile and through-hole termination support secure mechanical attachment in vibration-prone environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many contacts does TFM-105-03-F-D-LC provide and at what pitch?

The TFM-105-03-F-D-LC is a 5-position dual-row connector offering 10 total contacts at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. This fine pitch allows engineers to route 10 signals through a PCB footprint roughly half the size of an equivalent 0.100" pitch connector, maximizing board real estate in compact designs.

What advantage does the low-clearance (LC) body offer in mezzanine PCB stack designs?

The low-clearance variant reduces the connector height above the PCB surface, enabling board-to-board stack heights as small as a few millimeters when paired with a matched mating strip. This is critical in portable instruments and embedded modules where the total assembly height must stay under strict mechanical envelope constraints of 10 mm or less.

When is TFM-105-03-F-D-LC a preferred alternative to a standard 0.100" pitch dual-row header?

Engineers choose TFM-105-03-F-D-LC over a standard 0.100" pitch header when board area is the primary constraint and only 10 signals need to be routed. At 0.050" pitch the connector occupies approximately 6.35 mm of board length per row versus 12.7 mm for a 0.100" equivalent, nearly halving the footprint for the same signal count.
