What are the key features of T1M-18-T-SV-L?

  • 18-position single-row 1.00 mm pitch terminal strip enabling high-density wire-to-board connections in PCB layouts requiring minimal connector footprint
  • Tinned (-T) contact finish provides good solderability and corrosion resistance for general-purpose signal wiring in indoor electronic assemblies
  • Vertical (SV) wire entry orientation simplifies cable routing perpendicular to the PCB surface in compact enclosures and instrument chassis

What is T1M-18-T-SV-L used for?

T1M-18-T-SV-L serves as a wire-to-board interface for 18 discrete signal wires at 1.00 mm pitch in space-constrained designs such as embedded controllers, industrial sensors, and laboratory instruments. The tinned contact finish and vertical wire entry make it easy to assemble in benchtop and production environments where standard 2.54 mm pitch connectors are too large.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does T1M-18-T-SV-L differ from T1M-18-F-SV-L-P in contact finish and retention?

T1M-18-T-SV-L uses a tinned (-T) contact finish rather than the gold or silver flash typically used in high-cycle connectors, and it omits the press-fit locking (-P) retention feature present on T1M-18-F-SV-L-P. Tinned contacts are cost-effective for low to moderate mating cycles (under 30 cycles) in indoor applications at 1.00 mm pitch with 18 positions.

What board space does an 18-position 1.00 mm pitch connector like T1M-18-T-SV-L require compared to a 2.54 mm pitch alternative?

At 1.00 mm pitch, 18 positions span approximately 17 mm of PCB length, compared to about 45 mm for an equivalent 2.54 mm pitch connector. This roughly 2.6x reduction in connector footprint length allows T1M-18-T-SV-L to fit in narrow PCB edge zones where standard 0.1" pitch headers would exceed the available board width by 28 mm or more.

For which wire gauges and cable types is T1M-18-T-SV-L designed?

The T1M series at 1.00 mm pitch accommodates wire gauges typically from 28 AWG to 32 AWG with stripped conductor lengths of approximately 1.5 mm to 2.0 mm. These fine-gauge wires are standard in internal ribbon cable and discrete harness assemblies used in medical devices, portable instruments, and compact industrial control modules with 18-signal wiring requirements.

What applications use 18-position 1 mm pitch wire-to-board connectors like T1M-18-T-SV-L at high volume?

High-volume applications include HDD and SSD flex cable termination, optical module interface cables, handheld medical diagnostic equipment with 18-channel sensor inputs, and compact PLC I/O expansion modules. The 1.00 mm pitch allows 18 signals within a 17 mm connector span, fitting the standard edge connector zones of 100 mm x 100 mm format embedded computer boards.
