What are the key features of STMM-106-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR?
- 2.00mm pitch dual-row shrouded design with 12 positions provides polarized, keyed wire-to-board mating to prevent misconnection
- Surface mount (SM) termination supports standard SMT reflow assembly with tape-and-reel (TR) packaging for pick-and-place automation
- Female contact gender mates with standard SAMTEC STM series male terminal strips for secure, low-profile board-to-cable interconnection
What is STMM-106-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR used for?
The SAMTEC STMM-106-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR is suited for consumer electronics, industrial panels, and embedded computing modules requiring a keyed 2.00mm pitch dual-row cable-to-board interface that withstands repeated mating cycles. Its shrouded, polarized housing is particularly valuable in field-serviceable equipment such as motor drives, battery management systems, and programmable logic controllers where incorrect cable insertion must be prevented during maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What position count and pitch does the STMM-106-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR connector provide for cable-to-board connections?
The STMM-106-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR provides 12 positions arranged in a dual-row (6 per row) configuration at a 2.00mm pitch. The shrouded housing keys the cable mate orientation, ensuring correct 12-pin alignment on every insertion cycle and making it suitable for multi-signal cable harnesses in industrial and consumer electronics assemblies.
How does the shrouded housing of the STMM-106-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR protect against mismating in field service scenarios?
The polarized shroud of the STMM-106-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR physically blocks 180-degree reversed insertion and prevents off-by-one pin misalignment, which is critical in field service where technicians may connect harnesses under poor lighting or in confined spaces. This mechanical keying eliminates the most common wiring error in 2.00mm pitch dual-row connectors, reducing field return rates caused by reversed or shifted cable connections.
What SMT assembly process is compatible with the STMM-106-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR, and what does tape-and-reel packaging provide?
The STMM-106-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR uses surface mount (SM) termination compatible with standard lead-free reflow profiles at peak temperatures up to 260°C. The tape-and-reel (TR) packaging allows direct loading into pick-and-place feeders, supporting automated high-volume placement at rates typical of modern SMT lines. This eliminates manual placement of each 12-position connector and reduces per-unit assembly labor on production runs exceeding 500 units.
When is the STMM-106-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR a better choice than a 2.54mm pitch terminal strip for a motor drive control board?
At 2.00mm pitch, the STMM-106-02-FM-D-SM-K-TR occupies approximately 22% less board length than an equivalent 2.54mm pitch 12-position connector, freeing about 6.5mm of PCB edge for other components on a motor drive control board. The shrouded, keyed housing also adds mechanical locking absent in many open-frame 2.54mm terminal strips, which is important in vibration-prone motor drive enclosures where cable connectors can work loose over time.
