What are the key features of SMH-103-02-H-S-TR?
- Horizontal SMT socket strip on 0.100 inch pitch for low-profile board-edge mating with standard 0.100 inch header pins
- Single-row 3-position layout provides a compact and space-efficient interconnect footprint for simple signal interfaces
- Tape and reel (TR) packaging enables automated pick-and-place SMT assembly for high-volume production environments
What is SMH-103-02-H-S-TR used for?
The SMH-103-02-H-S-TR is designed for horizontal surface mount applications where a low-profile socket connection to a mating 0.100 inch pitch header is needed at the board edge. Its 3-position single-row format suits simple signal, control, or power interfaces on embedded modules, sensor boards, and I/O breakout cards. The tape and reel packaging makes it convenient for automated SMT line integration in medium to high-volume production runs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pitch and position count does SMH-103-02-H-S-TR have, and what headers does it mate with?
The SMH-103-02-H-S-TR is a 3-position socket strip built on a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch. It is designed to mate with standard 0.100 inch pitch vertical or right-angle header pins, which are among the most widely used pin headers in embedded electronics, making it interchangeable with a broad range of mating connectors from multiple manufacturers.
How does the horizontal (H) orientation of SMH-103-02-H-S-TR benefit PCB height-constrained enclosure designs?
The horizontal surface mount orientation of SMH-103-02-H-S-TR allows the mating connector to engage parallel to the PCB surface rather than perpendicular to it. This reduces the overall connector stack height to typically under 5 mm above the PCB, which is advantageous in slim enclosures, panel-mount boards, or card edge interfaces where vertical clearance is limited to less than 10 mm.
Is SMH-103-02-H-S-TR available in tape and reel, and what does that mean for assembly lead times?
Yes, the TR suffix on SMH-103-02-H-S-TR confirms tape and reel packaging, which directly supports automated SMT pick-and-place machines without requiring manual feeder loading. This eliminates a common bottleneck in high-volume PCB assembly lines, and standard tape and reel reel quantities of 1000 or more pieces per reel reduce per-placement handling time and enable continuous production runs without interruption.
