What are the key features of SMH-136-02-FM-S-TR?
- Horizontal surface mount configuration at 0.100" pitch allows right-angle board-to-board or board-to-cable mating in space-constrained enclosures
- 72-position single-row socket strip with tape-and-reel (TR) packaging optimized for high-volume automated SMT assembly
- Gold-plated contacts on the SMH series provide reliable low-resistance connections suitable for repeated mating cycles in instrumentation and embedded systems
What is SMH-136-02-FM-S-TR used for?
The SMH-136-02-FM-S-TR is ideal for horizontal board-edge interconnect in industrial automation, medical devices, and consumer electronics where right-angle mating allows cables or daughter cards to exit parallel to the main PCB. Its 0.100" pitch 72-position layout supports dense signal routing for data acquisition, sensor interface, and control applications requiring a reliable surface mount socket.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the horizontal orientation of SMH-136-02-FM-S-TR benefit low-profile enclosure designs?
The horizontal right-angle mount of the SMH-136-02-FM-S-TR allows mated connectors or flat cables to run parallel to the PCB surface, reducing overall stack height compared to vertical socket strips at the same 0.100" pitch. This is particularly valuable in shallow enclosures found in medical devices and portable instruments where vertical clearance above the board is less than 10 mm.
Which production environments benefit most from the tape-and-reel packaging of the SMH-136-02-FM-S-TR?
High-volume SMT production lines benefit most from the TR packaging, as it enables automated pick-and-place placement of the 72-position socket at 0.100" pitch without manual handling. Manufacturers producing thousands of units per shift in industrial automation or consumer electronics can maintain placement accuracy and throughput that manual loading of a 72-pin right-angle socket cannot match.
When should an engineer select SMH-136-02-FM-S-TR instead of a through-hole horizontal socket at 0.100" pitch?
SMH-136-02-FM-S-TR is preferred when the PCB design uses surface mount only assembly with no through-hole drilling step, which reduces fabrication cost and layer stackup complexity. It suits single-sided SMT boards where 72 signal connections at 0.100" pitch must be made without vias, and where automated reflow soldering ensures consistent joint quality across all 72 positions simultaneously.
