Frequently Asked Questions
How many circuits does the TSM-105-02-H-SH-A provide and in what arrangement?
The TSM-105-02-H-SH-A is a 10-position connector arranged in a dual-row, 5-per-row configuration at 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch. This dual-row layout provides 10 circuits in a compact footprint, enabling high-density signal routing on boards where space is at a premium.
What mounting style and orientation does the TSM-105-02-H-SH-A use on a PCB?
The TSM-105-02-H-SH-A uses surface-mount technology (SMT) with a horizontal mating orientation, meaning the mating direction runs parallel to the PCB surface. SMT termination allows the connector to be placed and soldered through standard reflow processes, reducing assembly cost compared to through-hole alternatives with equivalent 0.100 inch pitch.
For which applications is the shrouded housing of TSM-105-02-H-SH-A particularly beneficial?
The shrouded housing ensures proper mating alignment across all 10 positions and protects the 0.100 inch pitch contacts from debris and accidental mis-insertion. This is especially valuable in industrial control cabinets and communications rack equipment where frequent cable connect/disconnect cycles occur, reducing connector wear and preventing signal errors over the product's lifetime.
Does TSM-105-02-H-SH-A work with standard 0.100 inch pitch cable assemblies?
Yes, the TSM-105-02-H-SH-A is compatible with standard 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch IDC or discrete wire cable assemblies with matching dual-row housings. This broad compatibility means off-the-shelf 10-circuit cables and crimped wire harnesses with 2×5 housings can mate directly, simplifying sourcing and reducing custom cable costs.
