What are the key features of TFML-148-02-F-D-P-TR?

  • 96-position dual-row locking terminal strip with 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch
  • Tiger Eye high-reliability contact geometry for consistent electrical connection over many mating cycles
  • Positive locking mechanism prevents accidental unmating under vibration or mechanical stress
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging supports automated high-volume SMT production lines
  • Dual-row (D) layout provides 48 contacts per row for high-density signal buses

What is TFML-148-02-F-D-P-TR used for?

The TFML-148-02-F-D-P-TR is designed for high-reliability applications in aerospace and defense electronics, medical instrumentation, and ruggedized industrial systems where positive locking is required to prevent connector unmating under shock or vibration. Its 96-position dual-row Tiger Eye design also serves high-density computing modules, FPGA carrier boards, and communication line cards that demand reliable 0.050 inch pitch signal connectivity with a secured mechanical interface.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many signal positions does the TFML-148-02-F-D-P-TR provide, and how are they organized?

The TFML-148-02-F-D-P-TR provides 96 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration with 48 contacts per row at a 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch. This high-pin-count layout enables dense signal bus routing for complex PCB interconnects in FPGA modules, computing boards, and data acquisition systems.

What does the locking feature on TFML-148-02-F-D-P-TR add compared to standard TFM terminal strips?

The locking mechanism on the TFML series provides a positive retention feature that prevents the mated connector pair from separating under vibration, shock, or accidental pull force. This is especially important in aerospace avionics, military field equipment, and industrial machinery where a 96-position connector losing contact mid-operation could cause system failure. Standard TFM strips lack this positive lock.

Is the TFML-148-02-F-D-P-TR compatible with automated SMT assembly and what packaging does it come in?

Yes, the TFML-148-02-F-D-P-TR comes in tape-and-reel (TR) packaging and is designed for surface mount assembly, making it fully compatible with automated pick-and-place equipment and standard SMT reflow soldering. The 0.050 inch pitch footprint and consistent reel packaging ensure high placement accuracy on high-volume production lines for industrial and defense electronics manufacturing.

For a harsh-environment embedded computing board, how does Tiger Eye contact technology in TFML-148-02-F-D-P-TR improve long-term reliability?

SAMTEC's Tiger Eye contact design uses a dual-beam wiping contact geometry that maintains consistent electrical contact force even after repeated mating cycles, vibration exposure, and thermal cycling. Combined with the positive locking shell, it ensures that the 96-position connector maintains low contact resistance and signal integrity across thousands of mating events in harsh industrial or military operating environments ranging from -55°C to +125°C.
