Frequently Asked Questions

What pitch and pin count does the TFM-148-13-L-D provide for high-density PCB interconnect?

The TFM-148-13-L-D features a 0.050 inch (1.27mm) pitch with 96 total positions in a dual-row configuration, giving 48 pins per row. This compact layout is ideal for high-density aerospace and defense PCB designs where board space is limited but signal count is high.

How does SAMTEC's Tiger Eye contact technology benefit long-term connector reliability in the TFM-148-13-L-D?

SAMTEC's Tiger Eye contact design uses a stamped and formed contact geometry that provides consistent wiping action over thousands of mating cycles, maintaining low contact resistance even in vibration-prone environments. This makes the TFM-148-13-L-D reliable for aerospace and military systems operating at 0.050 inch pitch with 96 positions.

Which SAMTEC mating connector families are compatible with TFM-148-13-L-D in a board-to-board stack configuration?

The TFM-148-13-L-D mates with SAMTEC TFW-series and compatible socket strip connectors designed for the 0.050 inch pitch dual-row footprint. Board-to-board stack heights vary by mating part selection, allowing designers to configure 96-position interconnects for compact embedded computing, avionics, and industrial modules.

For procurement planning, what is the typical lead time risk and lifecycle status for TFM-148-13-L-D?

SAMTEC TFM-series connectors are generally active production parts, but the 96-position 0.050 inch pitch configuration may carry moderate lead times of 4 to 12 weeks depending on stock levels. Buyers sourcing for aerospace or defense programs should confirm current availability and consider ordering buffer stock to avoid production delays on high-reliability boards.
