Frequently Asked Questions

How does the 0.050" pitch of TFM-140-04-SM-D-LC compare to standard 0.100" pitch connectors for high-density designs?

The TFM-140-04-SM-D-LC uses a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, which is half the spacing of standard 0.100" pitch connectors. This allows 80 positions in a dual-row format within roughly half the board space, enabling designers to achieve significantly higher interconnect density for compact PCB modules and mezzanine assemblies.

Can the TFM-140-04-SM-D-LC be processed through standard lead-free reflow soldering?

Yes, the TFM-140-04-SM-D-LC features an SM (surface-mount) termination style that is compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes at peak temperatures up to 260°C. It supports standard pick-and-place assembly, making it suitable for high-volume automated production lines without requiring manual soldering steps.

In which industries is the TFM-140-04-SM-D-LC commonly used and what signal types does it support?

The TFM-140-04-SM-D-LC is commonly deployed in data communications, networking equipment, and embedded computing modules where 80-pin dual-row connectivity at 0.050" pitch is required. It supports high-speed digital signals, with contact resistance typically below 20 milliohms, making it effective for parallel bus and general-purpose I/O interconnects in industrial and commercial applications.
