Key Features
- 66-position dual-row locking terminal strip on 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch for ultra-high-density interconnects
- Tiger Eye high-reliability contact geometry for superior mating force and retention
- Integrated locking (L) feature prevents accidental unmating in vibration environments
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging for automated high-volume SMT assembly
- Dual-row layout provides 66 total contacts in a minimal board footprint
- Precision 0.050-inch pitch enables compact mezzanine and FPGA daughter card designs
Applications
The TFML-133-02-F-D-P-TR is used in FPGA daughter cards, server mezzanine modules, and high-reliability telecommunications boards where 66 positions on a 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch locking connector are required. The Tiger Eye contact design and integrated locking mechanism make it suitable for applications subject to vibration or where accidental disconnection cannot be tolerated, such as deployed networking equipment and defense electronics. Tape-and-reel packaging supports automated SMT placement in volume production.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the locking feature on TFML-133-02-F-D-P-TR prevent accidental unmating in fielded equipment?
The TFML-133-02-F-D-P-TR incorporates a mechanical locking (L) mechanism that engages the mating connector housing, requiring deliberate release before unmating. On a 66-position dual-row connector at 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch, this prevents accidental disconnection caused by vibration or cable pull in deployed telecommunications racks, defense systems, and ruggedized industrial equipment.
What signal density advantage does the 0.050-inch pitch of TFML-133-02-F-D-P-TR offer versus standard 0.100-inch pitch options?
At 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch, TFML-133-02-F-D-P-TR provides 66 positions in roughly the same board length that a 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch connector would need for 33 positions. This doubles the effective signal density per unit board length, enabling designers to route wider data buses and more control signals across a shorter mezzanine card edge.
Is TFML-133-02-F-D-P-TR suitable for FPGA daughter card designs requiring wide parallel buses and ground shielding?
Yes. The 66-position dual-row format of TFML-133-02-F-D-P-TR provides enough contacts to support a wide parallel data bus, multiple power rails, and dedicated ground returns within a single 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch connector. The Tiger Eye contact reliability and locking body ensure the FPGA daughter card remains securely connected even when the host board experiences handling stress.
What is the expected lead time for TFML-133-02-F-D-P-TR, and does tape-and-reel packaging imply minimum order quantities?
Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging on TFML-133-02-F-D-P-TR is optimized for volume production orders and typically implies minimum reel quantities of 500 to 1000 pieces per reel. For engineering prototype quantities, buyers should request cut-tape or tray samples. Factory lead time for custom-suffix SAMTEC connectors at 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch is typically 3 to 6 weeks for volume orders.
