What are the key features of SMH-117-02-SM-S-TR?

  • 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch dual-row horizontal socket strip with 34 total contacts in 2 rows of 17 positions supports board-to-board and daughter-card interconnects
  • Horizontal surface mount orientation delivers a low-profile board connection ideal for slim enclosures and assemblies where vertical height is restricted
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging allows seamless automated SMT pick-and-place assembly, improving throughput in high-volume PCB manufacturing

What is SMH-117-02-SM-S-TR used for?

The SMH-117-02-SM-S-TR is used for board-to-board and module interconnects in embedded controllers, communication modules, and industrial automation equipment that require a 34-contact, 0.100" pitch horizontal socket. Its surface mount horizontal mounting style is advantageous in compact panel assemblies where the overall stack height must remain minimal. The tape-and-reel packaging supports efficient integration into automated SMT production lines for high-volume commercial and industrial electronics manufacturing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the total contact count and row configuration of SMH-117-02-SM-S-TR?

The SMH-117-02-SM-S-TR has 34 total contacts arranged in 2 rows of 17 positions each, with a 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch. This configuration provides a balanced distribution of signal and power contacts for board-to-board interconnects in compact embedded and industrial PCB assemblies.

What advantage does the horizontal orientation of SMH-117-02-SM-S-TR offer in low-profile product designs?

The horizontal mounting orientation keeps the mating connector parallel to the PCB surface, reducing the assembled board stack height compared to vertical socket strip alternatives. This is critical in slim industrial panels, embedded modules, and portable devices where the overall enclosure height must be constrained to under 10 mm, while still providing reliable 34-contact connectivity at 0.100" pitch.

How does SMH-117-02-SM-S-TR differ from SMH-130-02-SM-S-TR in terms of pin count and application fit?

SMH-117-02-SM-S-TR provides 34 contacts (2 rows x 17 positions) compared to 60 contacts (2 rows x 30 positions) in SMH-130-02-SM-S-TR, both sharing the same 0.100" pitch and horizontal SMT style. The 34-pin variant is better suited for lower pin-count applications such as compact communication modules and sensor boards, while the 30-position variant targets higher pin-count interfaces in more complex embedded system designs.
