What are the key features of TFM-105-05-FM-D-LC?

  • 10-position dual-row layout at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch provides compact high-density signal connectivity in a minimal PCB footprint
  • Low-clearance (LC) profile minimizes mated board-to-board stack height, enabling tight multi-board assemblies with clearances under 5 mm
  • FM (friction-mount) termination style supports secure board attachment without soldering, simplifying field replacement and rework in serviceable designs

What is TFM-105-05-FM-D-LC used for?

The TFM-105-05-FM-D-LC is suitable for compact board-to-board interconnect applications in embedded modules, sensor interface boards, and small-form-factor computing systems. Its 10-position dual-row layout and low-clearance profile allow engineers to establish dense signal connections between closely stacked PCBs in space-constrained enclosures. The friction-mount termination style is particularly useful in serviceable or prototype assemblies where connector removal and reinsertion is anticipated.

Frequently Asked Questions

What position count and pitch does TFM-105-05-FM-D-LC offer for board-to-board signal routing?

The TFM-105-05-FM-D-LC provides 10 positions in a dual-row configuration at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, delivering 10 simultaneous signal connections within a compact footprint under 0.35 inch in body length. This makes it well suited for low-channel-count interfaces such as SPI, I2C, UART, and GPIO expansion on tightly packaged sensor or control boards.

How does the FM (friction-mount) style of TFM-105-05-FM-D-LC simplify rework during hardware development?

The FM (friction-mount) style allows TFM-105-05-FM-D-LC to be installed and removed from a PCB without soldering, which reduces thermal stress on nearby SMT components during rework. Engineers developing prototype boards benefit from repeated connector removal and reinsertion across 50 or more cycles without degrading the 10-position dual-row contact interface or surrounding PCB pads.

In which multi-board enclosure designs does the low-clearance profile of TFM-105-05-FM-D-LC provide a mechanical advantage?

The LC (low-clearance) profile of TFM-105-05-FM-D-LC is advantageous in stacked-board architectures where vertical board-to-board separation must remain below 5 mm, such as industrial IoT gateway modules, wearable device mainboard-to-sensor stack connections, and compact embedded single-board computers. Compared to standard-height Tiger Eye variants, the LC profile can reduce mated stack height by several millimeters, directly enabling smaller product enclosures.
