Frequently Asked Questions

What contact finish does TFM-108-01-S-D-RA use, and how does it affect mating reliability?

The TFM-108-01-S-D-RA uses gold (30 µin) over nickel (50 µin) on mating contacts, delivering excellent corrosion resistance and stable contact resistance across hundreds of mating cycles. This finish is critical for high-reliability applications in instrumentation and aerospace where signal integrity over a 16-pin interface must be maintained long-term.

For a stacked daughter-card design operating at .050" pitch, how does the right-angle configuration of TFM-108-01-S-D-RA help?

The right-angle orientation routes signals parallel to the PCB surface, allowing the 16-position connector to mate with a vertical header on an adjacent board without increasing stack height. At .050" (1.27 mm) pitch, the TFM-108-01-S-D-RA keeps the footprint under 0.525 inch in length, preserving board real estate in compact embedded systems.

How does TFM-108-01-S-D-RA compare to a standard .100" pitch terminal strip for space-constrained PCBs?

At .050" (1.27 mm) pitch, TFM-108-01-S-D-RA provides 16 positions in a body length of 0.525 inch, roughly half the board space consumed by an equivalent .100" pitch strip. This 50% footprint reduction is decisive in compact embedded modules, FPGA mezzanine cards, and tight instrument chassis where every millimeter counts.
