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

  • 33-position single-row layout at 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch provides broad interoperability with standard male headers used across embedded computing and industrial I/O platforms
  • Horizontal surface-mount orientation enables side-entry mating, reducing overall board stack height to under 8 mm in slim enclosure and panel-mounted applications
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging ensures consistent component orientation for automated pick-and-place SMT assembly, reducing placement errors in high-volume production

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

The SMH-133-02-S-S-TR is used in industrial control panels, single-board computers, and embedded I/O expansion modules where a 33-pin side-entry socket accommodates ribbon cable headers or daughter board pins. Its 0.100-inch pitch single-row design is widely compatible with standard GPIO headers, simplifying integration with development boards such as Raspberry Pi HATs or Arduino shields. The horizontal SMT profile minimizes enclosure height requirements in panel-mount and DIN-rail-mounted equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many positions does SMH-133-02-S-S-TR support, and which mating connectors fit it?

The SMH-133-02-S-S-TR accepts 33 positions arranged in a single row at 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch, making it compatible with any standard 0.100-inch pitch male header strip from SAMTEC or alternative manufacturers. This universal pitch is used across embedded microcontroller boards, Raspberry Pi-compatible expansion headers, and industrial PLC I/O modules, giving designers broad sourcing flexibility for mating pins in both commercial and industrial supply chains.

What PCB mounting height does the horizontal SMT style of SMH-133-02-S-S-TR provide compared to vertical socket alternatives?

The horizontal (right-angle) SMT configuration of SMH-133-02-S-S-TR keeps the connector body parallel to the PCB surface with a total mounted height of approximately 5 mm to 8 mm above the board. Vertical SMT socket strips of equivalent position count typically extend 8 mm to 12 mm perpendicular to the board, so the horizontal variant saves 3 mm to 5 mm of enclosure clearance in height-constrained designs such as slim rack modules or compact industrial HMI panels.

When should a procurement engineer specify SMH-133-02-S-S-TR in tape-and-reel format rather than cut-tape or strip packaging?

Tape-and-reel format is preferred when production volumes exceed approximately 500 boards per run, since reel packaging feeds directly into automated SMT pick-and-place machines without manual component handling. At volumes below 100 units, cut-tape or strip packaging may reduce minimum order quantities and packaging cost. The TR suffix on SMH-133-02-S-S-TR confirms reel availability, which is important to specify in the BOM when submitting to a contract manufacturer running continuous SMT production lines at cycle times under 30 seconds per board.
