Frequently Asked Questions

How does the kinked-lead design of TSM-106-03-TM-DH-A-K-TR improve solder joint reliability?

The kinked leads create a controlled mechanical standoff above the PCB surface, ensuring consistent solder paste distribution under all 12 pins during reflow. This design minimizes solder voids and improves joint integrity during thermal cycling at reflow peak temperatures up to 260°C in standard SMT production environments.

What pitch and total pin count does TSM-106-03-TM-DH-A-K-TR provide for dual-row signal routing?

TSM-106-03-TM-DH-A-K-TR provides 12 pins arranged in dual rows of 6 on a 0.100-inch contact pitch, enabling multi-signal routing through a narrow PCB region. This dual-row layout reduces connector footprint length by about 50 percent versus a single-row 12-position strip at the same pitch.

How does tape-and-reel packaging benefit high-volume sourcing of TSM-106-03-TM-DH-A-K-TR?

Tape-and-reel packaging allows TSM-106-03-TM-DH-A-K-TR to be loaded directly into automated pick-and-place machines, achieving consistent placement of all 12 pins simultaneously across thousands of boards per production run. This format lowers manual handling costs and reduces placement errors versus tube or tray packaging formats.

How does TSM-106-03-TM-DH-A-K-TR compare to a through-hole terminal strip for industrial control designs?

Unlike through-hole connectors, the surface mount TSM-106-03-TM-DH-A-K-TR eliminates PCB drilling and supports single-pass assembly, while delivering the same 3 A per contact and 250 V operating ratings typical of the SAMTEC TSM series. This makes it preferable for automated manufacturing lines optimizing board-level space and assembly throughput.
