Key Features
- 14-position single-row 0.100-inch pitch surface-mount terminal strip with top-load contacts for direct wire-to-board termination without solder
- Dual-height (DH) housing and keying peg provide polarity protection across all 14 positions, preventing mis-mating in field-assembled cable harnesses
- Tape-and-reel packaging enables automated SMT placement with pick-and-place equipment for high-volume PCB production
Applications
The TSM-107-01-TL-DH-A-K-TR is used in field-wired industrial controls, sensor modules, and building automation panels where individual wires must be terminated directly into surface-mount connectors without solder tools. Its keying peg and dual-height housing prevent mis-insertion in assemblies with multiple adjacent 14-position connectors on the same PCB. Engineers also deploy it in power and signal distribution boards for elevator control, HVAC actuators, and programmable relay modules.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the top-load (TL) contact style in the TSM-107-01-TL-DH-A-K-TR differ from push-in or crimp contacts for field wiring?
Top-load contacts accept wire insertion from above without tools, allowing field technicians to terminate individual conductors into the 14-position connector in under 30 seconds using a standard screwdriver to actuate the clamp mechanism. This eliminates the need for crimp tooling or soldering irons at installation sites, reducing connector assembly time and potential for cold-solder defects on all 14 positions.
What role does the keying peg on the TSM-107-01-TL-DH-A-K-TR play in multi-connector PCB assemblies?
The keying (K suffix) peg creates a physical asymmetry on the 14-position connector body that prevents incorrect mating when multiple identical connectors are mounted side by side at 0.100-inch pitch spacing. This is critical in industrial control panels where a mis-wired 24 V power line on a signal-only connector could damage sensitive 3.3 V or 5 V circuitry across adjacent positions.
For what production volume threshold does the tape-and-reel variant of the TSM-107-01-TL-DH-A-K-TR provide cost and quality advantages over tube-packaged versions?
Tape-and-reel packaging on the TSM-107-01-TL-DH-A-K-TR (TR suffix) becomes cost-effective at production runs exceeding approximately 500 units, where automated pick-and-place machines can place the 14-position SMT connector 3-5 times faster than manual loading, reducing placement cycle time from about 8 seconds to under 2 seconds per connector and improving positional accuracy to within 0.05 mm.
