What are the key features of TSM-103-02-FM-DH-A-P-TR?

  • 6-position dual-row layout on industry-standard 0.100-inch (2.54mm) pitch enabling drop-in compatibility with standard 2.54mm PCB footprints
  • Friction-lock (FM) housing design preventing accidental cable disconnection during vibration or handling in assembled systems
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging supporting automated pick-and-place assembly for high-volume SMT production runs

What is TSM-103-02-FM-DH-A-P-TR used for?

TSM-103-02-FM-DH-A-P-TR is used in wire-to-board signal connections on embedded microcontroller boards, development kits, and light industrial control modules where a 6-position 2.54mm pitch terminal strip provides a cost-effective and compact interface. Its surface mount design suits automated assembly processes for consumer electronics and instrumentation products. The friction-lock housing ensures cable retention in applications subject to light vibration or repeated connect-disconnect cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pitch and position count does TSM-103-02-FM-DH-A-P-TR provide for SMT terminal connections?

TSM-103-02-FM-DH-A-P-TR has 6 positions in a dual-row arrangement on a 0.100-inch (2.54mm) pitch, giving 3 contacts per row. This standard 2.54mm grid pitch is compatible with common PCB footprint libraries and pairs with industry-standard 2.54mm cable assemblies widely used in embedded and prototype electronics.

How does the friction-lock feature on TSM-103-02-FM-DH-A-P-TR prevent unintended disconnection?

The FM (friction-lock) housing design uses an interference-fit latch that engages when the mating cable plug is fully seated, requiring a deliberate axial pull force typically exceeding 5N to disengage. This prevents accidental unmating from cable weight, vibration, or incidental contact in assembled devices subject to light mechanical disturbance.

Is TSM-103-02-FM-DH-A-P-TR optimized for automated PCB assembly and what reel format does it use?

Yes, the -TR suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging, typically on a 7-inch or 13-inch reel, making TSM-103-02-FM-DH-A-P-TR directly compatible with standard pick-and-place feeder systems. The SMT mounting pads on 2.54mm pitch reflow-solder to standard SAC305 lead-free paste profiles with a 260°C peak temperature tolerance.

Which prototype and embedded development applications benefit most from TSM-103-02-FM-DH-A-P-TR?

Microcontroller development boards, Arduino-compatible shields, and small industrial control modules benefit from TSM-103-02-FM-DH-A-P-TR due to its 6-position 2.54mm pitch layout matching standard 0.1-inch header grids. The surface-mount footprint saves board space compared to through-hole equivalents, while the dual-row arrangement keeps the 6 positions within a connector body length under 10mm.
