What are the key features of TFC-133-02-L-D-K-TR?
- 66 positions in dual-row configuration at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch delivers high signal density for compact PCB layouts
- Long kinked tails (-L-K) improve PCB registration and provide extended solder joint length for robust mechanical attachment
- Tape-and-reel (-TR) packaging enables automated pick-and-place assembly, reducing per-unit placement costs in high-volume production
What is TFC-133-02-L-D-K-TR used for?
The TFC-133-02-L-D-K-TR suits high-volume production of embedded computing modules, signal processing boards, and industrial I/O cards requiring 66-pin dual-row 1.27 mm pitch through-hole connectivity. Tape-and-reel packaging integrates seamlessly with automated pick-and-place equipment, improving assembly throughput and reducing manual handling costs. Long kinked tails increase solder joint strength for applications subjected to mechanical stress or vibration.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why would an engineer choose the TFC-133-02-L-D-K-TR over an equivalent connector without tape-and-reel packaging?
Tape-and-reel packaging on the TFC-133-02-L-D-K-TR enables direct loading into automated pick-and-place machines, eliminating manual feeding and reducing placement cycle time across 66-pin connectors. For production runs of 500 or more boards, this reduces labor cost per unit significantly and minimizes misplacement risk on 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch through-hole parts.
How do the long kinked tails on TFC-133-02-L-D-K-TR benefit the solder joint compared to standard-length tails?
Long tails on the TFC-133-02-L-D-K-TR extend further through the PCB than standard tails, increasing the solder joint length and improving pull-out strength. The kinked profile adds mechanical registration against the PCB surface before soldering, preventing the 66-pin connector from lifting or tilting during reflow and ensuring all contacts reach the proper solder paste deposit.
Which signal density scenarios justify the 66-pin TFC-133-02-L-D-K-TR versus a lower pin-count alternative?
Designs routing between 56 and 66 digital signals across a single dual-row connector justify the TFC-133 over smaller alternatives such as the TFC-128 (56 pins). Using a single 66-position connector at 1.27 mm pitch consolidates signals into a 1.650" footprint, avoiding multiple smaller headers and reducing the number of solder joints by up to 20 compared to using two 33-pin connectors.
