Frequently Asked Questions
How many signal positions does the TFM-132-32-LM-D-A-P-TR provide and what is its pitch?
The TFM-132-32-LM-D-A-P-TR is a dual-row terminal strip with 32 positions per row, giving 64 total contacts on a 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch. This high-density layout lets designers route 64 signals through a compact footprint, saving significant board space compared to wider-pitch alternatives.
What makes the Tiger Eye contact system in the TFM-132-32-LM-D-A-P-TR reliable for repeated mating cycles?
SAMTEC's Tiger Eye contact design uses a dual-beam structure that maintains consistent normal force across hundreds of mating cycles. This ensures stable electrical contact resistance below 20 mΩ and reliable signal integrity even in vibration-prone industrial or aerospace environments where connectors are frequently engaged and disengaged.
Is the TFM-132-32-LM-D-A-P-TR compatible with automated PCB assembly lines?
Yes, the -TR suffix confirms tape-and-reel packaging, directly compatible with standard automated pick-and-place machines. The surface-mount termination style supports reflow soldering at temperatures up to 260°C, making it suitable for high-throughput PCB assembly in commercial and industrial manufacturing environments.
In which application environments is the TFM series preferred over standard 0.100 inch pitch connectors?
The TFM series at 0.050 inch pitch is preferred when board real estate is limited and signal counts exceed 20 pins, such as in compact server blades, FPGA mezzanine cards, or handheld instruments. The 1.27 mm pitch reduces connector length by roughly 50% compared to 2.54 mm pitch alternatives while still supporting current ratings typically around 1 A per contact.
