What are the key features of SMH-135-02-TM-S-TR?

  • 35-position single-row layout on a standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch accommodates a wide range of GPIO, bus, and signal header mates
  • Horizontal top-mount (-TM) SMT termination enables right-angle board-edge connectivity without through-hole PCB drilling
  • Tape-and-reel (-TR) format is optimized for automated high-volume SMT pick-and-place production

What is SMH-135-02-TM-S-TR used for?

The SMH-135-02-TM-S-TR is suited for right-angle signal-header interfaces on embedded computing boards, industrial HMI modules, and test fixture PCBs where side-access connectivity for 35 signals is required on a standard 0.100" grid. Its horizontal surface-mount orientation reduces vertical height above the board, enabling use in slim enclosures where vertical receptacles would exceed available clearance, and the tape-and-reel format accelerates SMT assembly for production volumes requiring consistent solder joint quality across all 35 positions.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many positions does the SMH-135-02-TM-S-TR provide, and what pitch are they on?

The SMH-135-02-TM-S-TR provides 35 positions in a single-row arrangement on the standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch. This pitch is directly compatible with common 0.025" square-post headers used on microcontroller evaluation boards, FPGA development kits, and expansion connector systems, allowing the SMH-135 socket strip to mate with a wide variety of off-the-shelf and custom headers without requiring an adapter.

For a slim industrial HMI enclosure, how does the horizontal top-mount orientation of the SMH-135-02-TM-S-TR help meet height constraints?

The horizontal top-mount (-TM) style positions the SMH-135-02-TM-S-TR parallel to the PCB surface with the 35-position socket opening facing outward at the board edge. This right-angle orientation keeps the connector's above-board height significantly lower than a vertical receptacle, allowing the assembled PCB to fit inside slim industrial enclosures where vertical connector heights of more than a few millimeters would violate the chassis depth or lid clearance requirements.

How does ordering the SMH-135-02-TM-S-TR in tape-and-reel format simplify procurement and assembly planning for medium-to-high production volumes?

The -TR suffix designates the SMH-135-02-TM-S-TR as a tape-and-reel product, meaning it is pre-loaded on reels compatible with standard 8 mm to 44 mm SMT feeder systems. This allows purchasing teams to order standard reel quantities from distributors and slot them directly into pick-and-place lines processing thousands of 35-position socket strips per shift, reducing kitting complexity compared to tray or cut-strip packaging that requires manual loading.
