What are the key features of TFM-109-03-L-D-RA?
- 18-position dual-row right-angle (RA) configuration at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch for fine-pitch horizontal board-edge interconnects
- 03-series extended tail length provides deeper solder penetration, improving pull-out strength compared to standard L-series tails
- Tiger Eye contact geometry ensures low and consistent contact resistance across repeated insertion and withdrawal cycles
What is TFM-109-03-L-D-RA used for?
The TFM-109-03-L-D-RA is used in board-edge and horizontally-mated PCB assemblies within telecommunications equipment, embedded modules, and test fixtures requiring fine-pitch 1.27 mm pitch dual-row connectivity. The right-angle tail orientation aligns the mating interface parallel to the PCB, enabling card-edge access in enclosed chassis designs with limited vertical clearance. The extended tail length suits applications with thicker PCBs or wave-soldering processes requiring enhanced mechanical retention.
