What are the key features of SMH-133-02-H-S-TR?

  • 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch single-row socket strip compatible with standard 0.1 inch pin headers for broad mating flexibility
  • Horizontal surface mount orientation enables low-profile board-edge interconnect without increasing PCB stack height
  • Tape reel (TR) packaging supports high-volume automated pick-and-place SMT assembly with consistent placement accuracy
  • 33-position single-row layout suits modular I/O expansion and daughter card interfaces in embedded system designs

What is SMH-133-02-H-S-TR used for?

The SMH-133-02-H-S-TR is used as a board-to-board or wire-to-board interface in embedded systems, industrial controllers, and prototyping platforms where 0.1 inch pitch connectivity is required. Its horizontal surface mount style is particularly suited for daughter card sockets at the PCB edge, allowing mating boards to attach without increasing overall assembly height. The tape reel packaging makes it a practical choice for volume production of consumer electronics and IoT gateway modules.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many positions does the SMH-133-02-H-S-TR provide and at what pitch?

The SMH-133-02-H-S-TR provides 33 positions in a single row at 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch. This standard pitch is compatible with a wide range of 0.1 inch male pin headers, making it straightforward to source mating connectors for prototype and production board assemblies.

What is the advantage of the horizontal surface mount style for the SMH-133-02-H-S-TR in a compact enclosure design?

The horizontal SMT orientation places the socket opening parallel to the PCB surface, reducing the mating height to less than 5 mm above the board. This is beneficial in enclosures with tight vertical clearance where a vertical socket would increase the required chassis depth by 8 mm or more.

Can the SMH-133-02-H-S-TR be used in automated SMT assembly lines, and what packaging does it ship in?

Yes, the TR suffix indicates tape reel packaging, which is fully compatible with standard pick-and-place SMT equipment operating at placements rates of 500 to 3000 components per hour. Reel format reduces per-unit handling time and minimizes placement errors compared to loose or tray-packed connectors, making it the preferred option for volume PCB assembly.

What alternative SAMTEC socket strip models should be evaluated when fewer than 33 positions are needed?

For designs requiring fewer than 33 positions, SAMTEC's SMS series socket strips such as SMS-109-02-F-D with 9 positions offer the same horizontal surface mount style and 0.1 inch pitch compatibility. Reducing the position count from 33 to 9 or 18 can trim PCB footprint length by 60 to 70 percent while retaining the same SMT assembly process and mating connector compatibility.
