What are the key features of TFM-131-01-LM-D-A-P-TR?
- 62-position dual-row layout at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch for maximum signal density in compact board-stacking applications
- Tape-and-reel (-TR) packaging enables uninterrupted automated SMT pick-and-place assembly in high-volume PCB production
- Tiger Eye contact mechanism delivers high normal force for stable sub-20 milliohm contact resistance across extended mating and thermal cycling ranges
What is TFM-131-01-LM-D-A-P-TR used for?
The TFM-131-01-LM-D-A-P-TR is designed for high-density FPGA mezzanine cards, high-speed embedded processor modules, and RF signal conditioning boards where 62 circuits at 0.050 inch pitch must be interconnected with low-profile clearance and high contact reliability. Its tape-and-reel format enables fully automated SMT assembly, reducing per-unit labor cost in volume manufacturing. Design engineers select this connector for backplane daughtercard interfaces, compact communication modules, and rugged industrial computing stackups requiring both high circuit count and minimal mated height.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the low-profile horizontal (-LM) orientation of TFM-131-01-LM-D-A-P-TR benefit height-constrained FPGA module stacking?
The -LM horizontal orientation positions the 62-position connector body parallel to the PCB surface, reducing the above-board height compared to a vertical SMT or through-hole TFM variant. For FPGA mezzanine cards operating within a 4 mm or 6 mm board-to-board stack pitch at 0.050 inch contact spacing, this horizontal low-profile geometry ensures the connector does not protrude beyond the allowed clearance envelope, enabling slimmer card cage designs in embedded computing applications.
For a 62-circuit high-speed bus interface, what contact reliability does the Tiger Eye mechanism provide in TFM-131-01-LM-D-A-P-TR?
SAMTEC's Tiger Eye contact design applies above-average normal force at each of the 62 contact positions, maintaining contact resistance below 20 milliohms throughout the connector's rated mating cycle life. This high normal force keeps the contact stable under mechanical vibration and thermal excursions from -55 °C to +125 °C, which is critical for 62-circuit high-speed digital buses on rugged embedded modules and avionics boards where signal integrity must be preserved across the full operational temperature range.
How does TFM-131-01-LM-D-A-P-TR's tape-and-reel packaging affect per-unit assembly cost relative to tray packaging?
Tape-and-reel packaging allows the 62-position connector to feed continuously into a pick-and-place machine without operator intervention to refill component trays, which reduces placement cycle time and eliminates manual handling defects. For production runs of 500 or more PCBs, the -TR packaging typically reduces per-connector assembly labor by eliminating 5 to 10 seconds of tray-reload downtime per board, delivering measurable cost savings over tray-packaged alternatives at the same 0.050 inch pitch and position count.
