What are the key features of TFM-126-01-FM-D-A-P-TR?

  • 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch dual-row layout packs 52 contacts into a compact high-density footprint
  • Tiger Eye contact technology delivers high normal force and reliable low-resistance connections under vibration
  • Tape-and-reel packaging (-TR suffix) enables automated pick-and-place assembly for high-volume PCB production

What is TFM-126-01-FM-D-A-P-TR used for?

The TFM-126-01-FM-D-A-P-TR is used in high-density embedded computing, FPGA daughter cards, and RF module stacking applications where a 0.050 inch pitch dual-row connector must maintain reliable electrical contact across thousands of mating cycles. Its tape-and-reel packaging simplifies automated surface-mount assembly in high-volume production environments. Design engineers choose this terminal strip for backplane interconnect, mezzanine card attachment, and test fixtures requiring compact 52-circuit signal routing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the 0.050 inch pitch of TFM-126-01-FM-D-A-P-TR enable higher board density compared to 0.100 inch pitch connectors?

At 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, the TFM-126-01-FM-D-A-P-TR places 52 dual-row contacts in roughly half the PCB footprint required by an equivalent 0.100 inch pitch header. This allows engineers to route more signal lines within a smaller board area, making it ideal for high-density FPGA mezzanine cards and compact embedded modules where space is at a premium.

What mating cycle life and contact reliability does the Tiger Eye mechanism provide in the TFM-126-01-FM-D-A-P-TR?

SAMTEC's Tiger Eye contact design provides high normal force that maintains consistent contact resistance below 20 milliohms across repeated mating cycles, typically rated for 100 or more insertions under standard conditions. This high normal force also ensures reliable contact retention in vibration-prone environments such as aerospace, military electronics, and industrial control equipment operating over wide temperature ranges.

For procurement planning, does the -TR suffix on TFM-126-01-FM-D-A-P-TR indicate tape-and-reel packaging, and what quantity increments are typical?

Yes, the -TR suffix confirms tape-and-reel packaging, which feeds individual connectors into automated SMT pick-and-place machines at reel quantities typically ranging from 500 to 1,000 pieces per reel depending on body size. This packaging eliminates manual placement of 52-position dual-row connectors, reducing per-board assembly time and lowering defect rates in high-volume production runs.
