What are the key features of TFM-143-12-L-D-A-P-TR?

  • 86-position dual-row Tiger Eye terminal strip at 0.050" pitch for high-density board-to-board and mezzanine signal interconnect
  • Low-profile (L) contact style minimizes mated stack height for PCB assemblies with tight vertical clearance requirements
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging supports automated SMT pick-and-place assembly, enabling consistent high-volume production with minimal manual handling

What is TFM-143-12-L-D-A-P-TR used for?

The TFM-143-12-L-D-A-P-TR serves board-to-board and mezzanine stacking applications where an 86-position, 0.050" pitch low-profile connector is required to route multiple signal channels between adjacent PCBs. It is used in embedded processor modules, data acquisition daughter cards, and compact signal processing systems where minimizing the inter-board gap is as important as achieving high pin density. The Tiger Eye contact geometry provides the mating reliability necessary for defense, industrial, and communications hardware operating in demanding environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which board-to-board designs should consider this Tiger Eye terminal strip?

It suits compact board-to-board interconnects needing 86 pins, a 0.050 inch pitch, and low-profile surface-mount contacts for production SMT assemblies.

How does the dual-row layout influence PCB routing?

The dual-row format concentrates 86 pins into a dense connector footprint, so layout teams should verify routing channels, keepouts, and mating height early.

What procurement checks matter for automated assembly builds?

Buyers should confirm tape-and-reel packaging, the 86-position configuration, and the exact TFM series options before approving substitutions for high-volume placement lines.
