Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the TFML-107-02-L-D-P is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Header)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Number of positions and rows (14 positions, 2 rows)
• Pitch specifications (0.050" mating pitch, 0.050" row spacing)
• Mounting type (Surface Mount)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Fastening type (Friction Lock)
• Contact material and finish (Phosphor Bronze with Gold mating finish)
• Insulation material (Liquid Crystal Polymer)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Compliance certifications (ROHS3, UL94 V-0)

The substitute part TFML-107-02-L-D-K matches all these parameters identically, differing only in the contact finish post specification, which does not affect mating compatibility or functional performance in standard applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both TFML-107-02-L-D-P and TFML-107-02-L-D-K are active production parts from Samtec Inc. with identical compliance certifications. Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability and supply chain requirements. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability rating, ensuring suitability for regulated applications. The MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) indicates no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or handling. Surface mount assembly compatibility is equivalent for both variants, with identical pitch, position count, and mechanical envelope specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TFML-107-02-L-D-K be used as a direct replacement for TFML-107-02-L-D-P?

A: Yes. Both parts are functionally equivalent across all mating and mechanical parameters. They share identical connector type, position count, pitch, mounting type, and operating temperature range. Substitution is valid for standard board-to-board applications.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The parts differ only in the contact finish post specification, which is not a mating surface and does not affect connector performance or compatibility in typical applications.

Q: Are both parts suitable for high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. Both TFML-107-02-L-D-P and TFML-107-02-L-D-K operate across the -55°C to 125°C temperature range, making them suitable for industrial and automotive environments within this specification.

Q: Do these connectors require special handling during assembly?

A: Both parts have MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints. Standard surface mount assembly processes apply without additional moisture control requirements.

Q: Are these parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both TFML-107-02-L-D-P and TFML-107-02-L-D-K are ROHS3 compliant and carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification, meeting regulatory requirements for consumer and industrial applications.

Q: What is the pitch specification for these connectors?

A: Both parts feature 0.050" (1.27mm) mating pitch with 0.050" (1.27mm) row spacing in a 2-row, 14-position configuration.
