What are the key features of SMH-132-02-L-S-TR?
- 32-position single-row layout on standard 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch is directly compatible with industry-standard pin headers
- Horizontal (low-profile) surface-mount orientation minimises connector height above the PCB for slim enclosure designs
- SMT reflow-compatible termination supports automated pick-and-place assembly with tape-and-reel (TR) packaging
- Female socket contacts accept 0.100-inch pitch square or round pin headers for reliable, low-insertion-force mating
What is SMH-132-02-L-S-TR used for?
The SMH-132-02-L-S-TR is a versatile 32-position horizontal SMT socket strip suited to cable-to-board and board-to-board interconnects in consumer electronics, industrial control modules, and embedded computing platforms. Its 0.100-inch pitch aligns with the widely adopted standard pin-header pitch used across development boards and daughter-card systems, simplifying connector selection and reducing sourcing complexity. Tape-and-reel packaging enables automated pick-and-place assembly, supporting high-volume production runs with minimal manual handling.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many contact positions and what pitch does the SMH-132-02-L-S-TR socket strip provide?
The SMH-132-02-L-S-TR provides 32 pins in a single row at the standard 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) centre-to-centre pitch. This configuration is directly compatible with industry-standard pin headers widely found on microcontroller boards, industrial I/O modules, and cable harness assemblies, eliminating the need for adapter hardware or custom connector solutions.
In what PCB assembly environments does the horizontal SMT format of the SMH-132-02-L-S-TR perform best?
The horizontal surface-mount orientation keeps the 32-pin socket profile low and flat against the PCB, making it ideal for slim consumer products, thin embedded computing platforms, and enclosed industrial panels where vertical connector height must be minimised. Its SMT pads are compatible with standard lead-free reflow oven profiles at up to 260 °C, matching typical IPC-compliant soldering processes for high-reliability assemblies.
How does tape-and-reel packaging of the SMH-132-02-L-S-TR benefit high-volume PCB production?
Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging presents each SMH-132-02-L-S-TR in a standardised carrier that pick-and-place machines can feed continuously, allowing automated placement of these 32-pin SMT connectors at throughputs far exceeding manual insertion. This packaging also prevents ESD damage and contamination to the contact surfaces, helping maintain the low contact resistance needed for reliable 0.100-inch pitch signal connections in production.
When is the SMH-132-02-L-S-TR a better fit than a through-hole socket strip of equivalent pitch and count?
The SMH-132-02-L-S-TR's SMT footprint is preferred when the PCB design avoids through-hole drilling for the 32-pin connector area, reducing fabrication cost and enabling denser routing on inner layers below the connector. SMT mounting also suits a reflow-only assembly process where all components on both sides are soldered in the same oven pass, avoiding the selective soldering or hand-soldering step required for through-hole 0.100-inch socket strips.
