Key Features
- 7 positions in a dual-row horizontal layout at 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch for compact, polarized board-to-board interconnects
- Shrouded (SH) housing prevents mis-mating and protects contacts from contamination in harsh PCB environments
- Single-row horizontal (TM) orientation provides a low board-height profile ideal for tight enclosure and stacked PCB designs
- Surface mount SMT design with standard 0.100 inch footprint enables seamless drop-in replacement with existing TSM-series connectors
Applications
The TSM-107-05-TM-SH-A is suited for low-profile daughtercard signal connections, sensor interface boards, and embedded computing modules where a 7-position shrouded connector at 0.100 inch pitch is needed. Its horizontal SMT orientation allows it to fit within tight height constraints in compact enclosures used in robotics, industrial automation, and portable instruments. The shroud ensures correct mating polarity during maintenance and field servicing of deployed equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What position count and pitch does the TSM-107-05-TM-SH-A provide, and how does the shroud affect mating?
The TSM-107-05-TM-SH-A has 7 positions at a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch in a dual-row horizontal configuration. The shrouded (SH) housing forces the mating connector into the correct orientation across all 7 positions, preventing reversed or offset insertion that could damage contacts or short circuits during assembly or field replacement.
How does the horizontal SMT orientation of the TSM-107-05-TM-SH-A help in height-constrained enclosures?
The single-row horizontal (TM) orientation means the connector body lies parallel to the PCB surface rather than standing vertically, significantly reducing the overall board height after assembly. This is critical in compact enclosures, stacked PCB designs, and handheld devices where the available clearance above the PCB may be less than 10 mm and vertical connectors would not fit.
Is the TSM-107-05-TM-SH-A interchangeable with other SAMTEC TSM Series connectors on an existing PCB layout?
The TSM-107-05-TM-SH-A follows SAMTEC's standard TSM Series 2.54 mm pitch footprint, making it mechanically compatible with other TSM-107 variants on the same PCB pad pattern. Engineers can switch between shrouded and unshrouded options or change orientation suffixes without redesigning the PCB, provided the mating connector is updated to match the 7-position shrouded interface.
What signal types are commonly routed through the TSM-107-05-TM-SH-A in embedded system designs?
The TSM-107-05-TM-SH-A is commonly used for UART, SPI, or I2C debug headers carrying 3.3 V or 5 V logic signals, as well as for mixed signal-and-power interfaces where 1-2 pins carry 5 V supply and the remaining 5-6 positions handle digital I/O or analog reference signals. Its 7-position count also accommodates standard 7-pin JTAG or custom sensor bus interfaces in embedded designs.
