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

  • 32-position dual-row design at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch provides 64 contacts in a compact SMT footprint, enabling high-density signal routing in space-constrained board-to-board applications
  • Tiger Eye high-reliability contact technology ensures consistent low-resistance performance across extended mating cycles for demanding industrial and communications interconnect requirements
  • Tape-and-reel packaging supports high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly with standard SMT equipment, compatible with lead-free reflow soldering profiles up to 260°C

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

The TFM-132-01-STL-D-A-P-TR is designed for high-channel-count board-to-board interconnects in FPGA mezzanine cards, high-speed data acquisition modules, and network line cards requiring 64 signals in a compact 0.050 inch pitch SMT package. Its dual-row surface mount configuration suits multi-layer PCB stacks in embedded computing and telecommunications platforms where board height and footprint area are tightly constrained. Tape-and-reel delivery enables efficient automated manufacturing for industrial control, server infrastructure, and medical imaging system assemblies.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many total contacts does TFM-132-01-STL-D-A-P-TR provide, and what board length does the dual-row footprint occupy at 0.050 inch pitch?

The TFM-132-01-STL-D-A-P-TR provides 64 total contacts across 2 rows of 32 positions at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch. At this pitch, the 32-position row spans approximately 40.6 mm in length, keeping the dual-row connector footprint compact enough to fit within standard FPGA mezzanine card slot allocations while routing 64 independent signal lines across closely stacked PCBs.

For FPGA or DSP boards needing 64 I/O lines, how does TFM-132-01-STL-D-A-P-TR compare to using two 32-pin single-row connectors?

Using a single TFM-132-01-STL-D-A-P-TR consolidates 64 pins into one 40.6 mm dual-row footprint, eliminating the need to allocate board space and routing resources for two separate single-row connectors that together would consume more perimeter. A single connector also simplifies BOM management, reduces assembly pick-and-place operations by one step, and provides a single mating interface that is easier to polarize and key against accidental mis-connection in production.

What soldering and handling precautions apply to TFM-132-01-STL-D-A-P-TR during high-volume PCB manufacturing?

TFM-132-01-STL-D-A-P-TR is designed for SAC305 lead-free reflow soldering with a peak temperature of 260°C per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020. The 0.050 inch pitch requires precise solder paste stencil apertures to avoid bridging across the 64-pin dual-row pattern. Tape-and-reel packaging protects the connector during automated handling, and moisture sensitivity level (MSL) baking per J-STD-033 should be verified before soldering if the connectors have been stored outside of dry-pack for extended periods.

When is TFM-132-01-STL-D-A-P-TR a more cost-effective procurement option than the TFM-142 series for signal count requirements between 56 and 84 pins?

TFM-132-01-STL-D-A-P-TR is the most cost-effective choice when a design requires exactly 64 signals, as it avoids paying for the extra 20 pins of the TFM-142 series (84 pins) that would go unused. Oversizing to TFM-142 adds approximately 12.7 mm to the connector body length and increases per-unit cost, while the TFM-132 at 0.050 inch pitch matches the 64-line requirement precisely with a smaller footprint, reducing both component cost and PCB real estate for high-volume production.
