What are the key features of TSM-108-02-FM-SH-A?
- 8-position dual-row 0.100" pitch SMT layout enables high-density signal interconnects in a small horizontal PCB footprint
- Shrouded housing (SH) provides polarization keying to prevent mis-mating during cable assembly
- Surface-mount termination eliminates through-hole drilling, simplifying PCB fabrication and supporting reflow assembly processes
What is TSM-108-02-FM-SH-A used for?
TSM-108-02-FM-SH-A is used in compact embedded systems, IoT gateway boards, and test fixtures where surface-mount 0.100" pitch 8-position cable connectors are needed for data and signal routing between boards or cable assemblies. Its horizontal SMT profile and shrouded design make it ideal for low-profile consumer electronics, wearable device motherboards, and space-constrained industrial control modules requiring reliable 16-contact interconnects.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the SMT termination of TSM-108-02-FM-SH-A simplify PCB assembly compared to through-hole alternatives?
TSM-108-02-FM-SH-A uses surface-mount termination on a 0.100" pitch, allowing it to be placed and reflowed alongside other SMT components in a single pass without requiring a separate through-hole soldering step. This reduces manufacturing cycle time and simplifies PCB stack-up by eliminating the 8 drilled through-holes that a comparable pin-through-hole connector would require on a dual-row layout.
What cable assembly pitch is compatible with TSM-108-02-FM-SH-A and how many signals can it carry?
TSM-108-02-FM-SH-A is compatible with standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch cable mates and provides 8 total positions in its dual-row configuration, supporting up to 8 discrete signal or power connections per connector. The shrouded housing ensures correct polarization when mating with ribbon or discrete wire assemblies built on the same 0.100" grid.
In which embedded computing designs is TSM-108-02-FM-SH-A a better fit than a taller vertical SMT header?
TSM-108-02-FM-SH-A's single-row horizontal orientation keeps the mated cable running parallel to the PCB surface, reducing the overall assembly height and making it suitable for low-profile enclosures with less than 10 mm of vertical clearance. Vertical SMT headers orient the mating cable perpendicular to the board, increasing the risk of connector stress and cable pull-out in vibration-prone environments where a horizontal cable exit reduces mechanical lever arm.
