What are the key features of TFM-105-05-STL-D-LC?
- 10 positions in a dual-row 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch STL surface-mount configuration with 5 contacts per row for ultra-compact PCB signal routing
- LC (low-current) tail option reduces solder tail thermal mass, improving reflow joint quality on fine-pitch 0.050" PCB pads in automated SMT assembly
- Tiger Eye contact technology provides reliable wiping action and maintains stable contact resistance over repeated mating cycles in harsh environments
What is TFM-105-05-STL-D-LC used for?
The TFM-105-05-STL-D-LC is designed for ultra-compact signal interconnects on small-form-factor PCBs such as sensor interface modules, RF front-end boards, and miniature embedded controllers. Its 10-position dual-row footprint at 0.050" pitch occupies minimal board area, making it ideal for IoT devices, wearable electronics, and compact mezzanine card designs where every square millimeter of PCB real estate is critical.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many signal positions and rows does the TFM-105-05-STL-D-LC provide, and what is the contact pitch?
The TFM-105-05-STL-D-LC provides 10 total positions in a dual-row layout with 5 contacts per row at a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. This small 10-position footprint is optimized for PCB designs where routing even 10 signals through a standard 0.100" pitch connector would consume too much board area or edge space.
In which miniaturized PCB designs does TFM-105-05-STL-D-LC offer a clear advantage over a 0.100" pitch 10-position header?
The TFM-105-05-STL-D-LC's 0.050" pitch gives it roughly half the board footprint of an equivalent 0.100" pitch 10-pin header, making it the better choice for wearable electronics, compact IoT sensor nodes, and small mezzanine modules where the PCB is typically smaller than 30 mm x 30 mm. The STL surface-mount profile also eliminates through-hole drilling, freeing back-side board area for additional SMT components.
How does the LC tail option on TFM-105-05-STL-D-LC affect soldering reliability in high-volume SMT production?
The LC (low-current) tail on the TFM-105-05-STL-D-LC features a reduced cross-sectional solder tail that absorbs less heat during reflow, allowing the fine 0.050" pitch PCB pads to reach proper solder liquidus temperature across all 10 positions simultaneously. This reduces the risk of cold solder joints and tombstoning in automated SMT assembly, improving first-pass yield in production runs without requiring custom high-heat reflow profiles.
