What are the key features of TSM-104-05-STL-SH?
- Standard 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch ensures compatibility with common PCB layout grids and mating connectors
- 4-position single-row SMT terminal strip supports streamlined automated PCB assembly without through-hole drilling
- Vertical orientation provides straight-up wire termination for low-profile panel wiring in tight enclosures
- SAMTEC quality construction guarantees consistent contact resistance and mechanical durability across repeated mating cycles
- Surface-mount technology reduces PCB manufacturing cost by eliminating through-hole operations
What is TSM-104-05-STL-SH used for?
The TSM-104-05-STL-SH is used in test and measurement equipment where 4-pin wire connections must mate directly to a PCB surface-mount header at 2.54 mm pitch. Its vertical SMT profile suits rack-mounted industrial controllers and automation sub-assemblies with limited vertical clearance. Prototyping boards and low-volume production systems also employ this strip for reliable signal and low-current power routing on standard 0.100 inch grid layouts.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the TSM-104-05-STL-SH have, and what pitch does it use?
The TSM-104-05-STL-SH features 4 positions on a single row with a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. This is the industry-standard grid spacing, making it directly compatible with common ribbon cables, dupont connectors, and 0.100 inch PCB footprints used across test equipment, industrial controllers, and prototyping systems.
What mounting style does the TSM-104-05-STL-SH use, and how does that affect PCB assembly?
The TSM-104-05-STL-SH is a surface-mount terminal strip, so it reflows with standard SMT paste and picks up on automated placement lines without the drilling step required by through-hole alternatives. Its vertical orientation keeps wire or mating connector clearance above the board surface, and the 4-pin footprint fits within a compact 10.16 mm x single-row land pattern.
Is the SAMTEC TSM-104-05-STL-SH suitable for industrial control panels with limited vertical clearance?
Yes. The vertical single-row SMT design of the TSM-104-05-STL-SH allows wires to exit straight upward from the PCB, minimizing lateral spread in tight enclosures. With 4 contact positions at 2.54 mm pitch, it can handle signal lines or low-current power up to the connector's rated current per pin, which for SAMTEC TSM series is typically 3 A per contact, well within industrial sensor and I/O wiring needs.
What are common alternatives to the TSM-104-05-STL-SH for 4-pin SMT connections at 0.100 inch pitch?
Designers often compare the TSM-104-05-STL-SH to SAMTEC's own TSW or SSW series headers, which share the 2.54 mm pitch but differ in post height and shroud options. Molex KK 254 and TE Connectivity AMPMODU SMT headers also target the same 4-pin 0.100 inch footprint. The TSM series is chosen when a terminal-strip form factor with vertical wire exit suits the enclosure better than a fully shrouded 4-pin housing.
