Key Features

  • 12-position dual-row SMT terminal strip with 2.54 mm (0.100") pitch for standard board interconnect applications
  • Gold-plated contacts (G suffix) delivering low contact resistance below 30 mΩ with high mating-cycle reliability
  • Single-row horizontal (SH) orientation enables side-entry mating in space-constrained PCB enclosures
  • 3 A per pin current rating suitable for mixed signal and low-power distribution rails

Applications

The TSM-106-05-G-SH-A is well suited for PCB edge or side-access interconnects in embedded systems, industrial controllers, and test fixtures requiring a compact 12-pin 0.100" dual-row header. The single-row horizontal (SH) configuration allows mating from the side of the board, facilitating modular daughtercard and motherboard connection schemes. Gold-plated contacts ensure long-term signal integrity in applications such as sensor interfaces, communication modules, and portable instrumentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many total contacts does the TSM-106-05-G-SH-A provide and how are they arranged?

The TSM-106-05-G-SH-A provides 12 contacts total arranged in 2 rows of 6 pins each at 2.54 mm (0.100") pitch, compatible with standard 0.100" dual-row mating headers used across embedded computing, industrial, and test applications.

What benefit does the gold plating offer for TSM-106-05-G-SH-A in low-signal applications?

Gold plating (G suffix) maintains contact resistance below 30 mΩ and resists corrosion over more than 100 mating cycles, ensuring reliable signal integrity in low-level sensor, data-bus, and RF-adjacent circuits where millivolt-level noise margins are critical.

For which PCB form factors is the SH (single-row horizontal) orientation most advantageous?

The single-row horizontal (SH) orientation allows the mating connector to engage from the side of the PCB, reducing overall stack height by up to 50% compared to vertical headers and making it ideal for compact modules, panel-mount boards, and slim-profile enclosures with less than 10 mm clearance above the PCB surface.

When would TSM-106-05-G-SH-A be chosen over a through-hole equivalent for the same 12-pin function?

Surface mount placement eliminates through-hole drilling, reducing PCB fabrication costs and enabling double-sided SMT assembly. At current ratings up to 3 A per pin with reflow compatibility up to 260°C, the TSM-106-05-G-SH-A is preferred for automated high-volume lines where manual through-hole insertion would add assembly time.
