What are the key features of TFM-140-01-FM-D-A-P-TR?

  • Dual-row 40-position SMT terminal strip at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch in tape-and-reel packaging for high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly
  • Tiger Eye low-insertion-force contact geometry enables 200+ mating cycles without degradation, ideal for field-replaceable board modules
  • 30 µin gold over nickel contact plating ensures low contact resistance and corrosion resistance across -55°C to +125°C operating temperature

What is TFM-140-01-FM-D-A-P-TR used for?

The TFM-140-01-FM-D-A-P-TR is designed for high-volume automated SMT production in defense, aerospace, and medical electronics where tape-and-reel packaging and reflow-compatible surface-mount termination streamline pick-and-place assembly of a 40-position dual-row connector at 0.050" pitch. Its 80 total contacts in a compact strip support high-density board-to-board or mezzanine module interconnection with the reliability demanded in mission-critical subsystems. The Tiger Eye contact system allows frequent module swapping in field-serviceable equipment without compromising signal quality.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the total contact count of TFM-140-01-FM-D-A-P-TR and how does its SMT termination simplify PCB assembly?

TFM-140-01-FM-D-A-P-TR provides 80 total contacts arranged as 40 positions in a dual-row configuration at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. Its surface-mount (FM) termination style allows reflow soldering at up to 260°C alongside other SMT components, eliminating through-hole drilling for 80 pins and reducing board fabrication costs in high-volume production runs.

How does tape-and-reel packaging for TFM-140-01-FM-D-A-P-TR reduce production costs in high-volume manufacturing?

Tape-and-reel packaging feeds TFM-140-01-FM-D-A-P-TR directly into automated pick-and-place machines, enabling placement rates exceeding 1,000 connectors per hour with consistent positional accuracy. Compared to tray or loose packaging, reel format reduces manual handling, minimizes contamination risk, and cuts labor costs when assembling thousands of 80-contact dual-row SMT interconnects in defense or medical electronics production.

When would an engineer choose TFM-140-01-FM-D-A-P-TR over TFM-126-01-H-D-A-P-TR for a mezzanine board design with more than 52 signal lines?

When a mezzanine board design requires more than 52 signal lines at 0.050" pitch, TFM-140-01-FM-D-A-P-TR is the appropriate selection because it provides 80 total contacts versus the 52 contacts of TFM-126-01-H-D-A-P-TR. Both use the same SMT tape-and-reel format and Tiger Eye low-insertion-force contacts with 30 µin gold plating, so switching from the 26-position to the 40-position strip requires only a PCB footprint change without altering the assembly process.
