Key Features
- 6-position surface mount terminal strip at 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch for standard through-hole footprint compatibility
- Dual-height (DH) shroud provides added mechanical protection and guided mating for secure connector engagement
- Kinked (K) tail enhances mechanical retention to PCB pads during reflow soldering, tape-and-reel (TR) for high-volume SMT assembly
Applications
The TSM-103-03-SS-DH-A-K-TR is suited for standard 0.100 inch pitch SMT signal connections on industrial control boards, embedded system PCBs, and consumer electronics requiring a dual-height shrouded 6-pin terminal strip. Its tape-and-reel packaging and kinked-tail design make it compatible with pick-and-place automated assembly lines. The dual-height shroud ensures polarized, guided mating with SFM or SFS series mating receptacles for consistent field interconnections.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pitch and position count does the TSM-103-03-SS-DH-A-K-TR offer?
The TSM-103-03-SS-DH-A-K-TR is a 6-position terminal strip with 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch, single-row surface mount configuration suitable for standard PCB footprints widely used in embedded and industrial control electronics.
How does the dual-height shroud on the TSM-103-03-SS-DH-A-K-TR improve connector performance?
The dual-height shroud provides polarization and guided mating, preventing mis-insertion and reducing the risk of bent pins during field assembly. It adds approximately 0.1 inch of additional protection height compared to standard shrouded variants, enhancing mechanical robustness in vibration-prone environments.
What makes the TSM-103-03-SS-DH-A-K-TR suitable for high-volume automated PCB assembly?
Its tape-and-reel (TR) packaging is compatible with standard pick-and-place machines, and the kinked (K) tail feature holds the 6-pin connector in position on PCB solder pads during reflow, preventing movement that could cause solder bridges at 0.100 inch pitch.
What mating connector family is compatible with the TSM-103-03-SS-DH-A-K-TR?
The TSM-103-03-SS-DH-A-K-TR mates with SAMTEC SFM or SFS series female socket strips at 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch in a 6-position single-row configuration, enabling reliable low-profile board-to-board or wire-to-board connections up to the rated voltage and current per contact.
