What are the key features of SMH-132-02-H-S-TR?

  • 64-position single-row 0.100" pitch horizontal socket strip for right-angle low-profile board-edge connections
  • SMT solder terminations enable co-planar reflow soldering compatible with standard automated SMT assembly processes
  • Tape-and-reel packaging supports consistent pick-and-place orientation for high-volume production efficiency

What is SMH-132-02-H-S-TR used for?

The SMH-132-02-H-S-TR is used in board-to-board and board-to-module horizontal signal interconnects in embedded controllers, industrial I/O expansion systems, and consumer electronics where right-angle low-profile mating is required. Its 64-position single-row 0.100" pitch layout is compatible with standard 0.100" pitch header pins, enabling flexible signal routing in a compact footprint. The SMT termination allows integration into standard reflow soldering workflows without requiring through-hole PCB drilling.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the SMH-132-02-H-S-TR's 64-position single-row layout compare to dual-row connectors for similar pin counts?

The SMH-132-02-H-S-TR uses a single-row layout with 64 positions at 0.100" pitch, resulting in a connector length of approximately 6.4 inches. A dual-row alternative would achieve the same 64 positions in about 3.2 inches of board-edge length, using less linear space but requiring a wider PCB footprint. The single-row choice is preferred when only one row of header pins is available on the mating board or module.

What current rating per contact applies to the SMH-132-02-H-S-TR, and what does that mean for mixed signal and power routing?

SAMTEC SMH-series socket strips are rated for up to 1 A per contact at 0.100" pitch. For the SMH-132-02-H-S-TR with 64 positions, this allows up to 64 A of total distributed current if all pins carry power, though in practice the connector is primarily used for signal routing with selective power pins carrying 1 A each for low-power supply rails alongside digital I/O signals.

In which application categories does the SMH-132-02-H-S-TR fit as a horizontal socket compared to vertical socket alternatives?

The SMH-132-02-H-S-TR fits applications requiring a board-edge right-angle connection where the mating header is mounted at the PCB edge, such as I/O expansion slots in industrial PLCs, peripheral interface connectors in embedded SBC designs, and front-panel signal connectors in rack-mounted instruments. The horizontal orientation keeps the total mated height under 12 mm, fitting standard panel or enclosure clearances without the added height of vertical socket configurations.
