What are the key features of TST-132-04-F-D?
- 64-position dual-row configuration at 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch for direct mating with standard 64-pin IDC cable and socket connectors
- Shrouded housing with mechanical polarization key prevents mismatched mating, protecting all 64 signal pins during field installation
- Tin (F) plated contacts offer a cost-effective alternative to gold plating for applications with moderate mating cycle requirements up to 25 cycles
What is TST-132-04-F-D used for?
The TST-132-04-F-D is well suited for cost-sensitive industrial control boards, PLC I/O expansion modules, and data acquisition systems requiring a reliable 64-pin shrouded header interface. Its tin-plated contacts make it an economical choice for applications where gold plating is unnecessary, such as in fixed-installation equipment with infrequent connector mating. Through-hole mounting provides strong mechanical attachment for panel-mount and rackmount enclosures subject to vibration.

Frequently Asked Questions
What contact plating does the TST-132-04-F-D use and when is it preferred over a gold-plated version?
The TST-132-04-F-D uses tin (F) plated contacts, which provide a contact resistance typically below 30 milliohms at initial mating. Tin plating is preferred over gold when the application involves fewer than 25 mating cycles and cost reduction is a priority, such as in fixed-installation industrial control cabinets or factory wiring harness assemblies.
How does the 64-pin shrouded design of TST-132-04-F-D prevent wiring errors in production environments?
The shrouded housing of the TST-132-04-F-D encloses all 64 male pins and includes a polarization key that aligns the mating IDC connector in the correct orientation. This prevents reversed connections across the 0.100 inch pitch dual-row layout, reducing the risk of component damage from miswiring during high-volume manufacturing or field service.
Is the TST-132-04-F-D a drop-in alternative to the TST-132-04-G-D for budget-conscious designs?
The TST-132-04-F-D and TST-132-04-G-D share the same 64-position dual-row shrouded PCB header form factor at 0.100 inch pitch, differing only in contact plating: tin (F) versus gold (G). Designers can substitute TST-132-04-F-D in applications with fewer than 25 mating cycles where a lower per-unit cost is more important than the enhanced corrosion resistance provided by 30 microinch gold plating.
