Frequently Asked Questions
What does the FM designation mean on TSM-136-01-FM-DH-A-K-TR and how does it affect mating?
The FM designation means this 72-position connector has female-male contact geometry, allowing it to serve as an intermediate or pass-through connector. With 72 pins arranged in a 2x36 dual-row layout at .100" (2.54 mm) pitch, it provides flexible mating configurations for stacked PCB or board-to-board designs.
For a backplane design requiring 72-pin dual-row SMT connectors, how does TSM-136-01-FM-DH-A-K-TR fit?
The TSM-136-01-FM-DH-A-K-TR is a 72-position surface-mount part with dual-height (DH) housing for added mechanical stability, making it suitable for backplane and daughtercard interfaces. Its .100" (2.54 mm) pitch is a standard spacing compatible with many backplane connector ecosystems.
What are the compliance and contact finish specifications for TSM-136-01-FM-DH-A-K-TR?
The -K suffix indicates gold-plated contacts, which provides corrosion resistance and low contact resistance over thousands of mating cycles. Buyers should confirm RoHS compliance status with SAMTEC distributors, as most SAMTEC TSM series products in tape-and-reel packaging meet RoHS and lead-free (Pb-free) requirements.
