Key Features

  • Gold (10 micro-inch) over nickel (50 micro-inch) contact finish for long-lasting low-resistance mating connections
  • Phosphor bronze contact material providing excellent spring force retention across thousands of insertion cycles
  • 4-position single-row receptacle configuration for compact signal interconnect applications
  • RoHS-compliant lead-free construction with 1-week factory lead time for rapid prototyping and production

Applications

The SAMTEC TMS-104-01-G-S is used in embedded systems, industrial controllers, and instrumentation boards as a board-level signal interconnect receptacle for daughter cards and modular sub-assemblies. Its gold over nickel contact finish ensures reliable mating in high-cycle applications such as test fixtures and hot-swappable module interfaces. The compact 0.196" body width makes it ideal for tight PCB layouts where connector density and signal integrity are both priorities.

Frequently Asked Questions

What contact finish does the TMS-104-01-G-S use, and how many mating cycles does gold over nickel typically support?

The TMS-104-01-G-S uses 10 micro-inches of gold over 50 micro-inches of nickel on both mating and termination contacts. Gold over nickel contact systems are typically rated for 500 or more mating cycles while maintaining contact resistance below 20 milliohms, making them suitable for test fixtures, development boards, and field-serviceable module connectors.

How wide is the body of the TMS-104-01-G-S and how many positions does it hold?

The TMS-104-01-G-S has a body breadth of 0.196 inches and holds 4 contact positions in a single-row configuration. This compact footprint allows the receptacle to be placed close to other components on dense PCBs, minimizing routing distances for signal traces and making it suitable for data and control line interconnects in embedded systems.

How quickly can the TMS-104-01-G-S be sourced for a production build, and is it suitable for rapid prototyping?

The TMS-104-01-G-S has a factory lead time of approximately 1 week, which is significantly faster than most specialty connectors that require 8 to 12 weeks. This short lead time makes it well-suited for both rapid prototyping iterations and low-volume production runs where minimizing procurement delays is critical to meeting development timelines.

For a modular sensor board requiring 4 signal lines, why would the TMS-104-01-G-S be preferred over a standard 2.54 mm pin header?

The TMS-104-01-G-S offers gold over nickel contact plating and phosphor bronze spring contacts, which provide far better corrosion resistance and lower contact resistance than standard tin-plated pin headers. For sensor boards handling low-level analog signals below 100 mV, the reduced contact resistance and superior mating reliability of this SAMTEC receptacle prevent measurement errors caused by corroded or high-impedance header contacts.
