Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions and what pitch does the TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K-TR have?
The TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K-TR features 60 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration with a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. This compact spacing allows high-density signal routing within a small PCB footprint, making it well-suited for space-constrained embedded and telecom designs where connector density is critical.
Which PCB assembly process is compatible with the TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K-TR and why does the TR suffix matter?
The TR suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging, which enables fully automated SMT pick-and-place assembly on standard reflow soldering lines. This packaging format is critical for high-volume production runs, reducing manual handling, improving placement accuracy, and supporting throughput rates of hundreds of units per hour in automated factories.
What contact plating does the TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K-TR use, and how does it affect long-term reliability?
The TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K-TR uses gold-plated contacts, which deliver low contact resistance typically below 20 milliohms and strong resistance to oxidation and corrosion over time. Gold plating is especially valuable in environments with temperature cycling or humidity, ensuring stable electrical performance across thousands of mating cycles throughout the connector's service life.
In what types of systems is the TFC-130-02-FM-D-A-K-TR commonly deployed?
This 60-position, 0.050" pitch terminal strip is commonly used in telecommunications infrastructure, networking switches, and industrial embedded computing platforms. It connects mezzanine cards, backplane assemblies, and compact daughter boards where 60 signals must be routed reliably within a tight 1.27 mm pitch grid. Medical instrumentation and defense electronics also leverage this connector family for its consistent contact performance.
