What are the key features of TFM-133-01-SM-D-A-P-TR?

  • 66-position dual-row Tiger Eye terminal strip at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch packaged in tape-and-reel (TR) for automated SMT pick-and-place assembly
  • SM (surface mount) and A-P (additional plating) options deliver enhanced corrosion resistance and reliable contact performance in high-reliability applications
  • High-density 1.27 mm pitch dual-row layout minimizes PCB footprint for board-to-board signal connections in compact embedded and communications designs

What is TFM-133-01-SM-D-A-P-TR used for?

The TFM-133-01-SM-D-A-P-TR is ideal for high-volume automated assembly of FPGA mezzanine cards, embedded computing modules, and communication subsystems requiring 66-contact dual-row SMT interconnects at 1.27 mm pitch. The tape-and-reel packaging enables seamless integration into pick-and-place production lines for industrial and telecommunications equipment. This connector is also used in test and measurement instruments and military-grade electronics where additional plating provides extra reliability against harsh environmental conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the TR suffix indicate for the TFM-133-01-SM-D-A-P-TR and why does it matter for production?

TR stands for tape-and-reel packaging, meaning the 66-contact SMT connector is supplied on a continuous reel for automated pick-and-place assembly lines. This packaging format is essential for high-volume production at 0.050 inch pitch, enabling thousands of placements per hour with consistent orientation and reducing manual handling errors during SMT assembly.

How many contacts does TFM-133-01-SM-D-A-P-TR provide and how are they arranged?

The TFM-133-01-SM-D-A-P-TR provides 66 total contacts in a dual-row configuration with 33 contacts per row at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch. This high-density layout supports 66 independent signal or power channels in a compact SMT footprint, ideal for FPGA mezzanine and board-to-board digital signal interconnects.

What advantage does the A-P (additional plating) option provide in harsh-environment deployments?

The additional plating (A-P) option on the TFM-133-01-SM-D-A-P-TR provides extra corrosion resistance and improved contact reliability compared to standard plating, extending connector life in environments with elevated humidity, salt spray, or chemical exposure. This makes it suitable for military, aerospace, and outdoor industrial systems requiring reliable performance over thousands of mating cycles.

When is TFM-133-01-SM-D-A-P-TR preferred over a non-tape-and-reel variant for connector procurement?

The TFM-133-01-SM-D-A-P-TR is preferred when production volumes exceed several hundred units per run, as tape-and-reel packaging reduces per-unit assembly time and cost on automated SMT lines handling 66-contact dual-row connectors at 1.27 mm pitch. For low-volume prototype runs or manual assembly, tray or bulk packaging of equivalent non-TR variants may be more practical and cost-effective.
