Key Features
- 4-position single-row horizontal terminal strip with 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch suits standard logic-level header mating on SMT boards
- Gold-plated contact finish minimizes contact resistance and provides long-term corrosion resistance across repeated mating cycles
- Shrouded housing offers polarized mating to prevent misalignment and protects contacts during assembly and field use
Applications
The TSM-104-04-G-SH-A is used in surface mount PCB designs requiring a compact 4-position terminal strip for signal, power, or control connections with 0.100 inch spacing. Its shrouded, polarized housing makes it well suited for industrial controls, sensor interface boards, and embedded systems where reliable keyed connections prevent reverse insertion errors during field installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What contact pitch does the TSM-104-04-G-SH-A use and how many positions does it provide?
The TSM-104-04-G-SH-A features a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch with 4 positions arranged in a single horizontal row, making it compatible with standard 0.100 inch pitch mating connectors and cables. This familiar pitch simplifies PCB layout and sourcing of mating plugs in prototype and production designs.
How does the shrouded housing of the TSM-104-04-G-SH-A improve assembly reliability?
The shrouded housing provides polarized mating guidance that physically prevents incorrect connector orientation, reducing assembly errors on 4-pin interfaces. Combined with gold-plated contacts, the shroud also shields the 4 positions from debris and incidental contact during PCB handling and soldering operations.
In which SMT board scenarios does the TSM-104-04-G-SH-A serve as an alternative to through-hole terminal blocks?
The TSM-104-04-G-SH-A is chosen over through-hole terminal blocks when double-sided SMT assembly or wave-solder-free production lines are required. Its surface mount termination eliminates drilling and allows 4-position signal breakout on boards as thin as 0.8 mm, supporting compact sensor modules and PCBA panel designs.
