What are the key features of SMH-134-02-FM-S-TR?

  • 68-position single-row layout at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch provides broad compatibility with standard dual-row pin headers and edge-card mating connectors
  • Horizontal flat-mount (FM) SMT orientation keeps the mating direction parallel to the PCB surface, reducing overall assembly height in low-profile system designs
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging ensures consistent component orientation for high-speed automated pick-and-place SMT reflow assembly in volume production

What is SMH-134-02-FM-S-TR used for?

The SMH-134-02-FM-S-TR is suited to industrial control boards, embedded processor modules, and test equipment where a 68-position horizontal socket strip at 0.100" pitch simplifies board-to-board or wire-to-board interconnect. Its flat-mount SMT design allows reliable connections along the PCB edge without increasing build height. The tape-and-reel packaging makes it efficient for automated assembly in medium and high-volume production runs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many positions does the SMH-134-02-FM-S-TR have and what pitch do its contacts use?

The SMH-134-02-FM-S-TR features 68 positions in a single-row arrangement at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, offering a wide connection interface that is broadly compatible with standard 2.54mm pitch pin headers used in embedded and industrial PCB designs.

What current rating per contact is expected for SMH series connectors at 0.100" pitch?

SMH series contacts at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch are typically rated for up to 3A per pin, allowing the 68-position SMH-134-02-FM-S-TR to carry both digital signals and moderate power distribution currents across a single connector without overheating.

Why choose the tape-and-reel format of the SMH-134-02-FM-S-TR over a tray version for production?

The tape-and-reel (-TR) format allows pick-and-place machines to feed and place these 68-position socket strips automatically, maintaining consistent orientation across thousands of placements per hour and reducing the manual handling errors common when loading from trays in high-volume assembly.

How does the horizontal flat-mount orientation benefit PCB layout in space-constrained designs?

The FM (flat-mount) orientation positions the socket so that a mating connector engages parallel to the PCB surface, resulting in a lower overall profile than a vertical socket, which is essential when system height is constrained to less than 10mm in slim industrial or embedded product enclosures.
