What are the key features of TFM-145-32-F-D-A-P-TR?

  • Tiger Eye contact technology ensures reliable low-insertion-force mating with superior electrical performance across 90 dual-row positions at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch
  • Standard flat SMT termination enables robust solder attachment with consistent coplanarity across all 90 contact positions for high-yield PCB assembly
  • Polarization key and tape-and-reel (TR) packaging support correct-orientation automated pick-and-place placement in high-volume SMT production environments

What is TFM-145-32-F-D-A-P-TR used for?

TFM-145-32-F-D-A-P-TR is designed for high-density board-to-board signal interconnect on FPGA development boards, network switching line cards, and modular compute platforms where 90 connections must be accommodated within a compact 1.27 mm pitch SMT footprint. The Tiger Eye contact system and flat termination style provide consistent mechanical and electrical reliability across thousands of mating cycles in industrial and telecom equipment. Tape-and-reel packaging ensures compatibility with automated SMT lines in high-volume manufacturing environments for mil-aero, datacom, and embedded computing applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the total contact count and row arrangement of TFM-145-32-F-D-A-P-TR, and how does this support high-density FPGA interfaces?

TFM-145-32-F-D-A-P-TR provides 90 total contact positions in a dual-row configuration with 45 contacts per row, all on a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. This layout enables connection of 90 independent signal or power lines in a PCB row length of approximately 58 mm, making it practical for FPGA carrier boards that must route large numbers of high-speed I/O signals in limited board area.

How does the standard flat SMT termination of TFM-145-32-F-D-A-P-TR affect coplanarity and solder yield in automated assembly?

The standard flat SMT termination on TFM-145-32-F-D-A-P-TR maintains coplanarity across all 90 contact solder tails within tight tolerances, typically under 0.1 mm deviation. This consistent coplanarity is critical for achieving high first-pass solder yield in automated reflow assembly, especially on fine-pitch 1.27 mm pads where insufficient coplanarity can cause open solder joints on a significant fraction of contacts.

Under what circumstances should TFM-145-32-F-D-A-P-TR be chosen over TFM-150-32-F-D-A-P-TR in a modular system design?

TFM-145-32-F-D-A-P-TR with 90 contacts at 1.27 mm pitch is the better choice when a modular system interface requires fewer than 100 signals, reducing PCB footprint by approximately 6 mm of row length compared to the 100-contact TFM-150 variant. Choosing the 90-position version also avoids over-engineering connector interfaces in designs where 90 pins suffice, potentially lowering BOM cost per unit in high-volume production.

What current rating per contact does TFM-145-32-F-D-A-P-TR support, and how many contacts can be allocated for power rails in a mixed design?

Each contact in TFM-145-32-F-D-A-P-TR supports up to 1 A of current, with a contact resistance typically below 20 mΩ. In a mixed power-and-signal design, designers can allocate multiple contacts per power rail — for example, 5 contacts in parallel provide 5 A capacity for a 3.3 V or 1.8 V supply rail — while the remaining contacts carry high-speed digital signals.
