Key Features
- 60-position dual-row surface mount configuration at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch delivers very high signal density in a compact PCB footprint
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enables high-speed automated pick-and-place SMT assembly for volume production
- Tiger Eye contact technology with gold flash over nickel ensures robust mating engagement and long-term signal reliability
Applications
The TFM-130-01-SM-D-A-P-TR serves high-density board-to-board and board-to-cable interconnect needs in server computing, telecom line cards, and data acquisition systems requiring 60 positions at 0.050 inch pitch. Its surface mount profile allows integration into thin-profile card designs where through-hole assembly is not feasible. The tape-and-reel format ensures compatibility with automated SMT production lines in high-volume electronic manufacturing environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many signal positions does the TFM-130-01-SM-D-A-P-TR provide, and what board length does that require at 0.050 inch pitch?
The TFM-130-01-SM-D-A-P-TR provides 60 positions in a dual-row layout at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, resulting in a connector body length of approximately 1.500 inches (38.1 mm). This compact footprint is roughly half the length of a 60-position 0.100 inch pitch connector, making it well suited for space-constrained PCB designs in servers and telecom equipment.
Can the TFM-130-01-SM-D-A-P-TR be used in automated SMT assembly, and what production benefits does that offer?
Yes, the -TR suffix confirms tape-and-reel packaging optimized for automated pick-and-place equipment. Production lines can achieve placement rates above 10,000 parts per hour with 60-position connectors at 0.050 inch pitch, significantly reducing labor cost and misplacement defects compared to manual tray-fed assembly. This is especially valuable in high-volume consumer electronics and networking hardware production.
When is TFM-130-01-SM-D-A-P-TR a better fit than TFM-129-01-SM-D-A-P-TR for a new backplane design?
Choose the TFM-130-01-SM-D-A-P-TR over the 58-position TFM-129-01-SM-D-A-P-TR when your signal bus requires exactly 60 positions, such as a 4-bit-wide 15-channel bus with power and ground lines on the outer rows. The 2 additional pins at 0.050 inch pitch add only 0.100 inch to the connector length while providing the extra conductors needed for reference signals or control lines.
