What are the key features of TFM-132-01-S-D-A-P-TR?

  • Dual-row 32-position surface-mount terminal strip at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch delivers 64 total contacts in a compact footprint for dense FPGA and SoC board interconnects
  • Tiger Eye gold-plated contact geometry produces a self-wiping mating action maintaining contact resistance below 20 mΩ across repeated mate-unmate cycles
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging supports automated SMT pick-and-place assembly for high-volume production, reducing placement cycle time compared to tube-fed alternatives

What is TFM-132-01-S-D-A-P-TR used for?

The TFM-132-01-S-D-A-P-TR serves high-density board-to-board interconnects in FPGA evaluation modules, software-defined radio hardware, and multi-channel data acquisition systems that require 64 signal contacts at 1.27 mm pitch. Its tape-and-reel format integrates smoothly into automated SMT assembly lines producing high-volume communications and embedded computing boards. The Tiger Eye contact design ensures long-term signal integrity in test and measurement applications where the connector is mated and unmated repeatedly during board-level functional testing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many total contacts does the TFM-132-01-S-D-A-P-TR provide and what bus architectures can it support?

The TFM-132-01-S-D-A-P-TR provides 64 total contacts — 32 positions across 2 rows at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. This is sufficient to route a 32-bit parallel data bus with 32 additional address, control, and ground signals, or to break out 16 differential pairs for high-speed LVDS or SERDES interfaces on FPGA mezzanine cards.

What is the significance of the -S- (single-ended) designation in the TFM-132-01-S-D-A-P-TR part number?

The S designator in the TFM-132 series refers to a standard single-ended contact configuration as opposed to a differential or tuned impedance variant. For 64-contact, 1.27 mm pitch applications where signals operate below approximately 1 GHz, the single-ended Tiger Eye contact is the most cost-effective choice and provides contact resistance below 20 mΩ without the added complexity of controlled-impedance contact geometry.

How does the TFM-132-01-S-D-A-P-TR tape-and-reel packaging affect supply chain and production line efficiency?

The -TR suffix designates tape-and-reel packaging, meaning each reel contains a fixed quantity of TFM-132 connectors — typically 250 to 500 pieces per reel — pre-oriented for pick-and-place feeders. This eliminates manual singulation from tubes or trays, cutting per-unit placement time by several seconds and enabling uninterrupted production runs of 64-contact, 1.27 mm pitch assemblies without feeder refills.

Is the TFM-132-01-S-D-A-P-TR a cost-effective alternative to a 64-pin 0.100" pitch header when board area is constrained?

Yes. Routing 64 contacts at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch reduces the connector footprint length by roughly 50% compared to a 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch header, freeing significant PCB area on dense multi-layer boards. The trade-off is that 1.27 mm pitch cable assemblies cost more than standard 0.100" IDC ribbon assemblies, so the TFM-132 series is most economical when board area savings outweigh the cable cost premium.
