What are the key features of TSM-108-05-STL-SH-A?
- 8-position dual-row surface-mount terminal strip with 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch for standard through-board signal routing
- Horizontal (SH) orientation enables low-profile PCB edge connections with reduced vertical clearance requirements
- Gold contact plating on mating surfaces ensures low contact resistance and corrosion resistance over many mating cycles
- Single-row horizontal configuration simplifies board-edge interconnects in space-constrained SMD designs
- SAMTEC TSM series provides consistent mating force and alignment for reliable board-to-wire or board-to-board connections
What is TSM-108-05-STL-SH-A used for?
The TSM-108-05-STL-SH-A is commonly used for board-edge signal and power connections in industrial control panels, embedded system interfaces, and test equipment where the 0.100 inch pitch provides compatibility with standard connector ecosystems. Its horizontal surface-mount orientation suits enclosure-mounted PCBs requiring front-panel or side-access connectivity. The 8-position dual-row configuration also fits well in sensor interface boards and relay control modules needing organized multi-channel wiring.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pitch and orientation does the TSM-108-05-STL-SH-A use for PCB connections?
The TSM-108-05-STL-SH-A uses a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch in a horizontal (SH) surface-mount orientation, providing 8 positions across a dual-row footprint. This standard pitch ensures broad compatibility with mating connectors in the 0.100 inch connector ecosystem common in industrial and instrumentation PCB designs.
How does the horizontal surface-mount design of TSM-108-05-STL-SH-A benefit enclosure-mounted PCBs?
The horizontal orientation places the mating direction parallel to the PCB surface, allowing cables or mating connectors to enter from the board edge without adding vertical height above the PCB. This is particularly useful in slim enclosures or panel-mounted designs where clearance above the board is limited to a few millimeters.
In which industries are TSM-108-05-STL-SH-A terminal strips typically used?
This 8-position 0.100 inch pitch SMT terminal strip is typically used in industrial automation, building control systems, laboratory test instruments, and embedded computing equipment. Its dual-row configuration supports multi-channel signal routing such as 8 digital I/O lines or mixed signal and power connections in modular controller boards.
What contact plating does TSM-108-05-STL-SH-A provide and how does it affect long-term reliability?
SAMTEC TSM series connectors use gold contact plating over nickel, delivering low and stable contact resistance suitable for low-level signal connections alongside power pins. Gold plating maintains reliable electrical contact across temperature ranges from -55°C to +125°C, resisting oxidation in humid industrial environments where connector reliability is critical.
