Frequently Asked Questions
What contact pitch and position count does the TFM-106-03-L-D-LC terminal strip provide?
The TFM-106-03-L-D-LC provides 6 positions per row in a dual-row configuration on a .050" (1.27 mm) pitch, yielding 12 total contacts. This fine pitch enables very high-density interconnect, fitting 12 signal lines in a footprint roughly half the size of equivalent .100" pitch connectors.
For which high-density PCB applications is the Tiger Eye contact design of TFM-106-03-L-D-LC particularly advantageous?
The Tiger Eye contact design is particularly advantageous in medical imaging, portable test instruments, and high-speed FPGA mezzanine boards where 12 signals must be reliably connected within a footprint under 10 mm in length. The contact geometry delivers a controlled normal force of approximately 100 grams per contact, maintaining stable connections across temperature excursions from -55°C to 125°C.
How does TFM-106-03-L-D-LC compare to .100" pitch alternatives when board space is critical?
The TFM-106-03-L-D-LC at .050" pitch occupies approximately 50% less board area than equivalent .100" pitch dual-row connectors carrying the same 12 signals. This makes it the preferred choice when PCB real estate is priced above $5 per square inch in production volumes or when miniaturized form factors such as wearable or implantable devices demand extreme density.
