What are the key features of TFM-146-02-L-D-LC?

  • 92 positions in a dual-row 0.050" pitch configuration for maximum contact density on SMT boards
  • Low-clearance (LC) design minimizes board-to-board stack height, saving vertical space in compact assemblies
  • Surface mount vertical termination simplifies PCB assembly and eliminates through-hole drilling requirements

What is TFM-146-02-L-D-LC used for?

The TFM-146-02-L-D-LC is designed for high-density surface mount interconnect applications in telecommunications, networking, and industrial automation equipment. Its 92-position dual-row layout supports complex signal routing in compact PCB designs where board real estate is at a premium. The low-clearance feature makes it an excellent choice for stacked board assemblies in servers, routers, and embedded computing platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many positions does the TFM-146-02-L-D-LC provide and what is its pitch?

The TFM-146-02-L-D-LC provides 92 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, making it one of the higher-density Tiger Eye terminal strips suitable for complex signal routing in compact PCB designs.

What does the LC designation mean for the TFM-146-02-L-D-LC and how does it affect board clearance?

The LC designation indicates a low-clearance design, which reduces the vertical stack height between mated boards. This is critical for densely packed assemblies such as server blades or rack-mount modules where minimizing the distance between boards by even 1 mm to 2 mm can free space for additional circuitry.

For which PCB assembly methods is the TFM-146-02-L-D-LC compatible?

The TFM-146-02-L-D-LC is designed for surface mount technology (SMT) assembly in a vertical orientation, eliminating the need for through-hole drilling. This makes it compatible with standard reflow soldering processes and high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly for 92-position connectors.

When would a designer choose the TFM-146-02-L-D-LC over a lower-position-count Tiger Eye strip?

A designer would choose the 92-position TFM-146-02-L-D-LC when a single connector must carry a large number of signal lines—such as parallel data buses, power rails, and ground references—without the board space overhead of multiple smaller connectors at the same 0.050" pitch.
