What are the key features of TFM-119-03-STL-D-RA?

  • 38-position dual-row configuration with 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch for ultra-compact high-density PCB layouts
  • Right-angle SMT termination style enables low-profile board-to-board or board-to-cable mating in space-constrained enclosures
  • Tiger Eye contact design provides high normal force and superior contact reliability for vibration-resistant applications

What is TFM-119-03-STL-D-RA used for?

The TFM-119-03-STL-D-RA is well suited for high-reliability PCB interconnects in telecommunications, aerospace, and industrial control systems requiring compact 0.050-inch pitch connectors. Its right-angle surface-mount profile makes it ideal for backplane daughter-card assemblies and signal routing between stacked boards. The Tiger Eye contact design ensures consistent mating force and low contact resistance across thousands of engagement cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pitch and row count does the TFM-119-03-STL-D-RA use, and how does that affect layout density?

The TFM-119-03-STL-D-RA uses a 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch with 2 rows, providing 38 total positions. This fine pitch allows designers to route significantly more signals per linear inch compared to 0.100-inch pitch alternatives, making it ideal for high-density PCB layouts in compact enclosures where board real estate is limited.

Which industrial or aerospace applications benefit most from the Tiger Eye contact design in this connector?

Applications subject to mechanical vibration such as aerospace avionics, military ground equipment, and industrial motor-drive systems benefit most from the Tiger Eye contact design. The high normal force of Tiger Eye contacts maintains reliable electrical connection under shock and vibration, ensuring signal integrity at low contact resistance levels across the connector's rated life of thousands of mating cycles.

How does the right-angle SMT termination of TFM-119-03-STL-D-RA support low-profile board assembly?

The right-angle surface-mount termination allows the mating connector to approach from the side of the PCB rather than perpendicular to it, reducing the overall stack height to just a few millimeters above the board surface. This configuration is preferred in rack-mounted or slim-chassis designs where vertical clearance is limited to under 10 mm, and eliminates the need for through-hole drilling, reducing fabrication costs.
