What are the key features of TFM-117-22-SM-D?

  • 117 dual-row pins at 0.050-inch pitch for ultra-high-density surface-mount signal routing on compact PCBs
  • Surface-mount configuration enables automated pick-and-place and reflow assembly for high-volume PCB production
  • High-reliability Tiger Eye contact system provides consistent electrical performance across repeated mating cycles

What is TFM-117-22-SM-D used for?

The TFM-117-22-SM-D is designed for high-density surface-mount board-to-board interconnections in telecommunications, computing, and industrial control applications requiring 117 signal channels at 0.050-inch pitch. Its dual-row SMT layout eliminates through-hole drilling requirements and frees inner PCB layers for additional signal routing in multi-layer designs. This connector suits automated assembly processes in high-volume production environments where consistent contact performance across multiple mating cycles is essential.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many pins does the TFM-117-22-SM-D provide and what mounting style does it use?

The TFM-117-22-SM-D offers 117 pins in a dual-row surface-mount configuration at 0.050-inch pitch. The SMT design eliminates through-hole drilling and supports automated pick-and-place assembly on standard reflow lines, making it practical for high-volume production of dense multi-channel board interconnects in computing and telecom equipment.

What application environments benefit most from the TFM-117-22-SM-D dual-row SMT connector?

The TFM-117-22-SM-D suits telecom backplane assemblies, computing daughterboards, and industrial control systems where 117 channels must be routed at 0.050-inch pitch using SMT footprints. Operating reliably across temperatures from -40°C to +85°C, it is well suited for embedded modules, FPGA carrier boards, and rack-mounted equipment requiring dense surface-mount signal interconnections.

How does the SMT design of TFM-117-22-SM-D improve PCB routing compared to through-hole TFM variants?

The TFM-117-22-SM-D surface-mount pads eliminate through-hole vias entirely, freeing inner PCB layers for signal routing across all 117 pins at 0.050-inch pitch. This via-free approach reduces stackup constraints, particularly valuable in multi-layer boards operating at signal frequencies above 100 MHz where via stubs degrade signal integrity on high-speed data lines.

How does the 117-pin TFM-117-22-SM-D compare to lower or higher position-count TFM connectors?

The TFM-117-22-SM-D with 117 pins bridges designs needing more than 100 channels but fewer positions than larger 144-pin TFM variants, all at the same 0.050-inch pitch. This makes it a right-sized choice for FPGA mezzanine boards and multi-board digital systems where exactly 117 signal paths are required without the board footprint penalty of higher-count connector options.
