What are the key features of TFM-137-03-S-D-RA?

  • 74-pin dual-row right-angle configuration delivers very high-density board-to-board interconnects at 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch
  • Tiger Eye contact geometry provides superior wiping action and normal force for reliable low-resistance mating across multiple cycles
  • High-reliability gold-plated contacts maintain stable contact resistance in industrial, aerospace, and defense applications
  • Right-angle (RA) mounting orientation enables edge-accessible PCB connections in rack-mounted and space-constrained enclosures

What is TFM-137-03-S-D-RA used for?

The TFM-137-03-S-D-RA is suited for high-density board-to-board, board-to-module, and backplane interconnect applications in industrial control systems, data communications equipment, and defense electronics. Its 74-position dual-row right-angle design accommodates large pin-count signal buses and power distribution across compact PCBs. The 0.050-inch pitch facilitates high-channel-density routing in test instrumentation, rack systems, and embedded computing platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many pins and what pitch does the TFM-137-03-S-D-RA support for board-to-board connections?

The TFM-137-03-S-D-RA provides 74 pins arranged in a dual-row layout on a 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch, delivering 37 contacts per row for very high-density signal routing in backplane, data communications, and industrial computing applications where maximizing connection count in a compact footprint is critical.

Which rack-mounted or stacked-board system designs benefit most from the TFM-137-03-S-D-RA right-angle orientation?

The TFM-137-03-S-D-RA's right-angle mounting routes all 74 pins parallel to the PCB surface toward the board edge, enabling accessible connections in rack-mounted industrial systems, chassis-enclosed defense equipment, and stacked board assemblies where vertical clearance is limited and edge-accessible signal routing is required.

How does Tiger Eye contact technology in the TFM-137-03-S-D-RA ensure long-term signal integrity?

Samtec's Tiger Eye contacts use a wiping mating action that maintains contact resistance below 20 mOhm across the full 74-pin interface, even after repeated insertions. This ensures consistent signal integrity in mission-critical applications including aerospace data buses, defense electronics, and high-speed data communications modules subjected to vibration and temperature cycling.
