Frequently Asked Questions

What locking mechanism does the TFML-138-02-L-D-P-TR use to secure connections in vibration-prone environments?

The TFML-138-02-L-D-P-TR features SAMTEC's Tiger Eye locking terminal strip design, which provides a positive engagement lock across all 76 pins on the 0.050" pitch dual-row connector. This locking action resists accidental disconnection in high-vibration aerospace, defense, and industrial applications.

How does the 0.050" pitch dual-row layout of the TFML-138-02-L-D-P-TR help maximize PCB signal density?

With 76 positions arranged in dual rows at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, the TFML-138-02-L-D-P-TR provides a high-density interconnect footprint that routes more signals per unit PCB area compared to wider-pitch connectors, making it suitable for compact module-to-module interface designs.

Is the TFML-138-02-L-D-P-TR available in tape-and-reel format for high-volume SMT production?

Yes, the TFML-138-02-L-D-P-TR is supplied in tape-and-reel (TR) format, compatible with automated SMT pick-and-place assembly equipment. The surface mount termination style supports standard reflow soldering, enabling efficient high-volume production of boards with 76-position dual-row connectors.

When should a designer choose the TFML-138-02-L-D-P-TR over a non-locking 0.050" pitch terminal strip?

The TFML-138-02-L-D-P-TR is the preferred choice when the application demands retention force against vibration or shock, such as in military avionics or ruggedized industrial controllers. Its Tiger Eye locking feature maintains 76-pin electrical contact integrity where standard non-locking 0.050" pitch strips might loosen under mechanical stress.
