What are the key features of TFM-150-12-F-D-A-P-TR?

  • Tiger Eye contact technology delivers high mating retention force across 100 dual-row positions for reliable signal continuity
  • 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch supports high-density SMT board-to-board interconnect with compact PCB footprint
  • Pick-and-place tape reel (TR) packaging enables automated SMT assembly for high-volume production efficiency
  • Polarization feature prevents mis-mating during assembly, reducing field failures in mission-critical applications

What is TFM-150-12-F-D-A-P-TR used for?

The TFM-150-12-F-D-A-P-TR is deployed in high-density board-to-board interconnect applications within communications infrastructure, embedded computing modules, and test and measurement equipment. Its 100-position dual-row layout at 1.27 mm pitch handles parallel bus signals and high pin-count FPGA or processor interfaces efficiently. The tape reel packaging and polarization feature streamline automated assembly in volume production environments where consistent placement accuracy is essential.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the total position count and pitch of the TFM-150-12-F-D-A-P-TR?

The TFM-150-12-F-D-A-P-TR provides 100 positions arranged in 2 rows with a 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) contact pitch. This configuration supports high pin-count interfaces such as 64-bit data buses or multi-channel analog signal arrays in a compact SMT footprint.

How does tape reel packaging benefit production assembly of the TFM-150-12-F-D-A-P-TR?

The TR (tape reel) packaging format is compatible with standard pick-and-place SMT assembly equipment, enabling consistent placement accuracy at production speeds exceeding 1000 components per hour. Reel packaging also reduces handling damage risk compared to tray formats, which is especially valuable for a 100-position connector with closely spaced 1.27 mm pitch contacts.

What function does the polarization feature serve in the TFM-150-12-F-D-A-P-TR?

The polarization keying physically prevents the mating connector from being inserted in the wrong orientation across 100 positions, eliminating mis-mating errors that could damage 3.3 V or 5 V logic signals. This is critical in automated board assembly and field-service scenarios where connectors may be re-mated under time pressure.

Which competing SAMTEC terminal strip models should be considered as alternatives to the TFM-150-12-F-D-A-P-TR for lower pin-count designs?

For lower pin-count requirements below 100 positions, the TFM-119-02-F-D-RA with 38 positions or TFM-131 series with 62 positions offer the same 0.050 inch pitch and Tiger Eye contact quality. These alternatives reduce PCB footprint area by 40 to 60 percent while maintaining the same 1.27 mm pitch mating compatibility within the TFM connector family.
