What are the key features of TSM-108-02-H-SH-A?
- 8-position dual-row 2.54 mm pitch SMT terminal strip with horizontal orientation enabling low-profile connector placement at PCB edges
- Single-row horizontal (SH) configuration routes mating connectors parallel to the board surface, reducing overall assembly height
- Standard 0.100 inch pitch ensures compatibility with a broad ecosystem of mating cable and board connectors
- Surface-mount termination supports automated reflow soldering for consistent high-volume PCB assembly at temperatures up to 260°C
What is TSM-108-02-H-SH-A used for?
TSM-108-02-H-SH-A is used in low-profile board-edge interconnections for industrial sensor interfaces, embedded control panels, and compact consumer electronics PCBs requiring 8 signal or power pins at the standard 2.54 mm pitch with horizontal mating orientation. It is especially suited for chassis-mount boards where a horizontal connector profile minimizes the clearance needed between the PCB and the enclosure wall, enabling thinner product form factors.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the SH (single-row horizontal) orientation of TSM-108-02-H-SH-A reduce PCB assembly height?
The SH orientation in TSM-108-02-H-SH-A routes the mating connector horizontally parallel to the PCB rather than vertically perpendicular to it, reducing the connector's above-board height compared to a standard vertical SMT header. For an 8-position 2.54 mm pitch strip, this can reduce the vertical clearance requirement from approximately 8 mm to under 4 mm, which is critical for compact enclosure designs.
Which signal and power configurations are supported by TSM-108-02-H-SH-A's 8 dual-row contacts?
TSM-108-02-H-SH-A's 8 positions in a dual-row 2.54 mm layout support a range of interface configurations: 8 single-ended digital I/O signals, 4 differential signal pairs, or a mix of 6 data signals plus 2 power pins. Each pin typically handles up to 3 A at 250 V AC, making the connector suitable for both signal and moderate power routing in industrial and embedded control PCBs.
How does TSM-108-02-H-SH-A compare to a vertical dual-row terminal strip for a chassis-mounted control board?
For a chassis-mounted control board with less than 10 mm clearance above the PCB surface, TSM-108-02-H-SH-A's horizontal orientation is superior to a vertical dual-row terminal strip because it eliminates the tall above-board connector stack. The 8-position SH strip mates from the PCB edge direction, allowing the board to slide closer to the chassis wall while maintaining 2.54 mm pitch compatibility with standard IDC ribbon cables and discrete wire connectors.
