What are the key features of TFM-136-01-H-D-A-P-TR?

  • 72-position dual-row (2x36) horizontal surface-mount layout at 1.27 mm pitch supports extremely high signal density in compact board-to-board interconnect systems
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enables high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly, reducing per-unit handling cost in production environments
  • Tiger Eye gold-plated contact system delivers low contact resistance and proven mating cycle reliability for demanding aerospace, defense, and industrial applications

What is TFM-136-01-H-D-A-P-TR used for?

The TFM-136-01-H-D-A-P-TR is designed for very high pin count board-to-board and mezzanine interconnect applications in aerospace, defense electronics, and high-performance computing systems. Its 72-position 1.27 mm pitch dual-row horizontal format allows engineers to route dozens of signals and control lines through a single compact connector pair. The tape-and-reel format suits large-scale automated SMT assembly lines where consistent placement accuracy and throughput are critical.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many positions does the TFM-136-01-H-D-A-P-TR provide, and how are they arranged?

The TFM-136-01-H-D-A-P-TR provides 72 total positions arranged in a dual-row 2x36 layout at a 1.27 mm (0.050 inch) pitch. This high pin count in a compact horizontal surface-mount footprint makes it one of the denser options in the Tiger Eye Terminal Strip family for board-to-board interconnect designs.

Why is tape-and-reel packaging significant for the TFM-136-01-H-D-A-P-TR, and what reel size is standard?

Tape-and-reel packaging for the TFM-136-01-H-D-A-P-TR ensures compatibility with automated SMT pick-and-place equipment, improving placement accuracy and throughput on high-volume PCB assembly lines. Standard 13-inch reels are typical for this connector size, allowing continuous feeding of the 72-position 1.27 mm pitch part through reflow soldering cycles without manual intervention.

What current can each contact in the TFM-136-01-H-D-A-P-TR handle, and what plating is applied?

Each contact in the TFM-136-01-H-D-A-P-TR is rated to 1 A per pin and features gold plating over a copper alloy substrate. The gold finish minimizes contact resistance and oxidation across thousands of mating cycles, which is critical for high-reliability signal integrity in aerospace, defense, and industrial control platforms.

In which high-density system architectures is the TFM-136-01-H-D-A-P-TR preferred over lower pin count alternatives?

The TFM-136-01-H-D-A-P-TR is preferred in backplane daughtercard assemblies, FPGA mezzanine modules, software-defined radio boards, and high-performance computing blade servers where routing 72 signals through a single 1.27 mm pitch connector reduces board real estate and simplifies wiring harness design compared to using multiple smaller connectors.
