What are the key features of TFM-106-04-L-D-LC?
- Compact 6-position (12-contact) dual-row 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch SMT terminal strip in a low-profile LC body
- Tiger Eye contact design delivers reliable normal force and repeatable electrical contact through 500+ mating cycles
- Low-profile (LC) body height minimizes vertical stack clearance requirements for slim PCB assemblies
What is TFM-106-04-L-D-LC used for?
The TFM-106-04-L-D-LC is designed for compact board-to-board signal connections in portable medical sensors, wearable electronics, and miniaturized embedded modules where a 12-contact, 0.050-inch pitch low-profile SMT header is required. Its small 6-position dual-row footprint is well-suited for space-critical areas of PCBs in aerospace instrument clusters and handheld test equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the total contact count and pitch of the TFM-106-04-L-D-LC, and how does the dual-row layout benefit PCB design?
The TFM-106-04-L-D-LC provides 12 contacts arranged in 2 rows of 6 on a 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch. The dual-row layout concentrates 12 signals into roughly half the PCB length of a single-row alternative, enabling more efficient use of board real estate in compact SMT designs.
When should an engineer choose the TFM-106-04-L-D-LC over a standard-height TFM connector for the same 12-position interface?
The LC (low-profile) variant is preferred when component height above the PCB must be minimized, such as in stacked-board assemblies or sealed enclosures with limited internal clearance. The TFM-106-04-L-D-LC maintains full 3A, 125V AC/DC contact ratings while reducing the connector body height compared to standard TFM options.
What industries commonly specify the SAMTEC TFM-106-04-L-D-LC and why is its mating-cycle rating relevant?
Medical device manufacturers, aerospace integrators, and portable instrument designers regularly specify this part because its Tiger Eye contacts sustain reliable connection through 500+ mating cycles at 3A per pin. Frequent connector cycling during calibration, testing, or field maintenance makes this durability specification critical for mission-sensitive 12-pin interfaces.
