Frequently Asked Questions
How many pins does the TFM-136-12-FM-D-A-P-TR provide and what is its contact pitch?
The TFM-136-12-FM-D-A-P-TR provides 72 pins arranged in a dual-row configuration with 36 pins per row on a 1.27 mm (0.050 inch) pitch. This high-density layout enables efficient signal and power distribution across a compact PCB footprint in industrial controllers, defense modules, and test equipment requiring large pin counts.
How does the flush mount (FM) contact option in the TFM-136-12-FM-D-A-P-TR benefit board stacking designs?
The flush mount contact style reduces the above-board connector height, enabling tighter board stacking with a lower overall assembly profile in multi-board systems. This is especially valuable in compact enclosures where 72-pin high-density 1.27 mm pitch interconnect is required without adding excessive board separation height or increasing system envelope size.
Why do volume manufacturers select the TR and P options of the TFM-136-12-FM-D-A-P-TR for production lines?
Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging feeds the TFM-136-12-FM-D-A-P-TR directly into automated SMT pick-and-place machines, while the integrated pick-and-place pads (P) ensure accurate positioning of all 72 pins on the PCB. This combination reduces placement errors, increases throughput, and lowers assembly cost in high-volume industrial electronics manufacturing.
