Key Features
- 8-pin dual-row board connector with gold (10 µin) over nickel (50 µin) mating contact finish for low-resistance, reliable signal connections across thousands of mating cycles
- Peg board mounting option for secure mechanical retention on PCB without soldering the housing, with a compact 0.4 inch body length and 0.12 inch breadth for dense layouts
- RoHS-compliant lead-free construction with tin (Sn) over nickel (Ni) barrier termination contacts, compatible with standard lead-free SMT and wave solder assembly processes
Applications
The TSM-104-02-L-SH is suited for board-to-board mating and daughter card connections in embedded systems, industrial controls, and test fixtures where a compact 8-pin dual-row interface is needed within a 0.4 inch footprint. Its peg mounting provides additional mechanical retention in high-vibration environments such as automotive test benches and industrial machinery. The gold mating contacts ensure consistent signal integrity in applications with moderate mating cycle requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
What contact finish does TSM-104-02-L-SH use and why does it matter for mating reliability?
The TSM-104-02-L-SH uses gold (10 µin) plated over nickel (50 µin) on mating contacts, providing low and stable contact resistance over many mating cycles. This finish is ideal for 8-pin signal connections in instrumentation and embedded boards where oxidation resistance and consistent conductivity are required.
How does the peg board mounting feature of TSM-104-02-L-SH improve mechanical performance in vibration-prone applications?
The peg mounting option on TSM-104-02-L-SH anchors the 0.4 inch body connector to the PCB mechanically, reducing stress on solder joints during vibration and shock events common in industrial machinery, test fixtures, and transportation equipment, extending solder joint life compared to contact-only mounting.
What is the physical footprint of TSM-104-02-L-SH and how does it constrain PCB layout?
The TSM-104-02-L-SH has a body length of 0.4 inch, breadth of 0.12 inch, and depth of 0.29 inch. Its 8-pin dual-row layout fits within a narrow PCB zone, enabling dense connector placement alongside other SMT and through-hole components on boards with limited routing area.
