Key Features
- 14-position SMT terminal strip on 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch compatible with standard 2.54 mm pitch mating receptacles and IDC connectors
- Dual-height (DH) body variant providing additional clearance for adjacent component placement or cable routing above the connector
- Surface-mount solder tail termination supporting lead-free reflow soldering up to 260°C for single-pass SMT production
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging for seamless pick-and-place feeder integration in high-volume PCB assembly lines
Applications
The TSM-107-03-L-DH-A-K-TR is used in embedded control boards, industrial I/O modules, and development platform headers where 14 signal or power contacts must be accessed through a standard 0.100 inch pitch SMT strip. The dual-height body variant is particularly useful when a taller connector profile is needed to clear adjacent SMT components or to provide a cable tie-off anchor above the board surface. Its tape-and-reel format suits mid- to high-volume automated PCB assembly without manual component placement.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the DH (dual-height) designation mean on the TSM-107-03-L-DH-A-K-TR, and when should a designer select it?
The DH designation indicates that the connector body has a taller profile than the standard TSM variant, typically adding several millimeters of height above the PCB surface. Designers select the dual-height body when adjacent SMT components are taller than the standard connector body, when a ribbon cable must clear neighboring parts, or when a visual alignment feature is needed during board-level assembly on a 0.100 inch grid.
For a 14-signal interface on a 0.100 inch pitch, how does the TSM-107-03-L-DH-A-K-TR compare to an equivalent FFC or FPC connector?
The 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch TSM-107-03-L-DH-A-K-TR is mechanically more robust than a flexible flat cable connector and supports higher per-contact current ratings—typically 1 A or more per pin—compared to fine-pitch FFC connectors rated at 0.5 A or below. The larger pitch also simplifies hand-rework and lab probing, making it more suitable for prototype boards and field-serviceable industrial equipment.
Is the TSM-107-03-L-DH-A-K-TR compatible with standard 0.100 inch pitch female headers used in prototyping platforms such as Arduino or Raspberry Pi shields?
Yes. The 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch of the TSM-107-03-L-DH-A-K-TR matches the standard header pitch used on Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and similar development platforms, allowing it to mate directly with 2.54 mm female headers, jumper wires, or IDC ribbon cable assemblies. This compatibility simplifies prototyping and debug access during development before transitioning to production boards.
What procurement options exist for the TSM-107-03-L-DH-A-K-TR, and how does tape-and-reel packaging affect minimum order quantities?
The tape-and-reel (TR) suffix indicates that the TSM-107-03-L-DH-A-K-TR is packaged on a continuous carrier reel, which typically sets minimum order quantities at one full reel—often 500 to 1000 pieces depending on the distributor. For smaller quantities, designers can request cut-tape or tray packaging from select distributors, though the TR format is optimized for SMT production lines that feed directly from reel stock.
