What are the key features of TFM-128-01-STL-D-A-P-TR?
- 56-position dual-row configuration at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch provides high-density SMT interconnects in a footprint under 37 mm
- Polarization peg (P) prevents incorrect board-to-board mating orientation, protecting all 56 signal lines from connection errors
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enables high-speed automated pick-and-place at rates compatible with standard SMT assembly equipment
- Tiger Eye contacts deliver contact resistance below 20 mΩ and retain reliable performance from -55°C to +125°C across all 56 positions
What is TFM-128-01-STL-D-A-P-TR used for?
The TFM-128-01-STL-D-A-P-TR is used in high-volume server blade assemblies, industrial computing modules, and FPGA expansion cards requiring a reliable 56-pin dual-row 0.050" pitch terminal strip with polarization and tape-and-reel delivery for automated production. Its anti-vibration pegs and polarization keys make it well suited for board-to-board interconnects in equipment subject to mechanical shock and thermal cycling. Telecom infrastructure equipment and scientific instrumentation also specify this part for multi-channel analog and digital bus routing where consistent contact integrity across 56 positions is required over extended service lifetimes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What advantage does the polarization peg (P) in TFM-128-01-STL-D-A-P-TR provide in multi-connector PCB assemblies?
The polarization peg creates a unique mechanical key that prevents the mating connector from being inserted in the wrong orientation, ensuring all 56 signal contacts align correctly. This eliminates reverse-connection faults on buses carrying 3.3 V or 5 V logic signals during both initial board bring-up and field maintenance operations.
How does tape-and-reel packaging for TFM-128-01-STL-D-A-P-TR benefit high-volume SMT production lines?
Tape-and-reel packaging allows the TFM-128-01-STL-D-A-P-TR to be fed directly into automated pick-and-place machines at placement rates of hundreds of components per hour, eliminating manual tray loading steps, reducing misplacement errors on fine-pitch 1.27 mm footprints, and lowering per-unit assembly cost for production volumes exceeding 10,000 boards.
For a 56-channel FPGA daughter card, what PCB footprint area does TFM-128-01-STL-D-A-P-TR require?
With 56 positions at 1.27 mm pitch in a dual-row arrangement, the TFM-128-01-STL-D-A-P-TR occupies approximately 36 mm of connector length and 2.54 mm of row spacing, fitting a rectangular footprint of about 36 mm by 5 mm. This is roughly 60% smaller than an equivalent 56-pin connector at 2.54 mm pitch.
When is TFM-128-01-STL-D-A-P-TR a suitable drop-in upgrade from a non-polarized 0.050" terminal strip?
Upgrading to TFM-128-01-STL-D-A-P-TR is recommended when field assembly or repeated maintenance creates risk of connector misorientation across 56 pins at 1.27 mm pitch, or when vibration environments exceeding 5 g require the added mechanical support of anti-vibration pegs to prevent connector shift and intermittent contact faults during operation.
