What are the key features of TSM-106-04-TM-DH-P-TR?

  • 12-position dual-row terminal strip with 0.100 inch pitch provides a standard-density board-to-board interconnect in SMT format
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging supports high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly with minimal handling overhead
  • Gold-plated contact surfaces ensure consistent low-resistance mating over repeated connector insertion cycles
  • Surface-mount termination eliminates through-hole drilling requirements, simplifying PCB fabrication for dense SMT board designs

What is TSM-106-04-TM-DH-P-TR used for?

TSM-106-04-TM-DH-P-TR is used in surface-mount board-to-board and board-to-wire interconnect designs requiring a standard 0.100 inch pitch 12-position dual-row terminal strip. Its tape-and-reel packaging makes it well suited for high-volume automated assembly of industrial control boards, embedded computing modules, and consumer electronics requiring compact SMT header connections. The dual-row configuration doubles the circuit density compared to a single-row alternative at the same 0.100 inch pitch.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many circuits does TSM-106-04-TM-DH-P-TR support and how are they arranged on the PCB?

TSM-106-04-TM-DH-P-TR supports 12 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration with 0.100 inch pitch between adjacent contacts. The dual-row layout places 6 contacts per row, providing 12 circuits within a compact surface-mount footprint that occupies roughly half the PCB length of a single-row 12-position connector at the same 0.100 inch pitch.

Why is the tape-and-reel packaging of TSM-106-04-TM-DH-P-TR important for high-volume PCB assembly operations?

The tape-and-reel (TR) packaging of TSM-106-04-TM-DH-P-TR allows the connector to be loaded directly into automated pick-and-place feeders, enabling precise and repeatable SMT placement at production line speeds. This eliminates the labor cost and placement inconsistency of manual insertion, making it essential for high-volume assembly runs where 12-position dual-row connectors must be placed accurately on hundreds or thousands of PCBs per shift.

For a 0.100 inch pitch dual-row surface-mount interface, when is TSM-106-04-TM-DH-P-TR preferred over a through-hole terminal strip?

TSM-106-04-TM-DH-P-TR is preferred over through-hole alternatives when the PCB design uses a fully surface-mount assembly process, since the SMT footprint avoids the 12 through-holes that a through-hole terminal strip would require. This simplifies PCB stackup design, eliminates wave soldering steps for these connectors, and supports placement on double-sided SMT boards where through-hole access is restricted by opposite-side components.

Which embedded computing and industrial applications are best served by TSM-106-04-TM-DH-P-TR's 12-position 0.100 inch pitch configuration?

Embedded computing daughter cards, industrial sensor interface boards, and programmable logic controller (PLC) expansion modules are well served by TSM-106-04-TM-DH-P-TR. The 0.100 inch pitch is a widely used standard spacing in these markets, ensuring broad mating header compatibility, while the 12-position dual-row format provides enough circuits for mixed signal and power distribution interfaces typical of industrial I/O expansion designs.
