TPM 2.0 Module, 20-Pin LPC Interface, Windows 11

A board with an empty TPM header can still be given one: this module plugs into a 20-pin LPC header and adds TPM 2.0 to the board. It is aimed at Windows 11 upgrade checks and bench testing. Check that the header is present and free before ordering.

Filling the TPM header on your board

✅ Version 2.0 The module carries a TPM 2.0 chip rather than the older 1.2 version, which Windows 11 upgrade checks expect.

✅ Header first Check the board has a free 20-pin LPC header before ordering; the fit depends on that connector.

✅ Bench testing On a bench, it plugs into a header so a board can be tested before it returns to service.

✅ Small on the board At about 5 g and 1.1 in wide, it hardly intrudes on the space around the header.

Windows 11 setup and the upgrade check look for a TPM 2.0 device, and a board whose TPM header is empty reports none. This module is the part that fills the header, so the firmware has a security device to read.

The card is a black PCB measuring about 1.1 x 0.47 x 0.39 in and weighing around 5 g, with a 20-pin LPC connection. It arrives as a single module, with no cable or mounting hardware stated in the pack.

Not every board accepts a third-party module: some firmware expects the vendor's own part, and a few do not expose the header at all. Check the manual for a TPM header and for support of a 20-pin LPC module before buying. No certification is stated for this part.
