What are the key features of TSM-108-05-T-SH?
- 8-position single-row layout on 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch with shrouded housing prevents mismating during connector assembly
- Gold-plated contacts rated at 3 A per pin and 250 V working voltage support both signal and low-power supply connections
- Surface mount vertical orientation reduces PCB height and supports automated solder reflow assembly on standard SMT lines
What is TSM-108-05-T-SH used for?
The TSM-108-05-T-SH is suited for wire-to-board and board-to-board signal distribution in consumer electronics, industrial controls, and embedded systems where polarization is critical. Its shrouded SMT housing prevents reverse insertion on compact 0.100-inch pitch footprints, making it a reliable choice for power rails and GPIO connections in space-constrained PCB layouts. The 8-position configuration supports small module interfaces such as sensor headers, programming connectors, and power distribution on sub-assembly boards.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the shrouded housing on TSM-108-05-T-SH provide that an unshrouded 0.100-inch strip does not?
The shroud on TSM-108-05-T-SH provides physical polarity keying that prevents reverse mating of the cable connector, protecting the 8 contacts rated at 3 A per pin and 250 V from damage caused by incorrect insertion—a critical feature in field-serviced equipment or boards with mixed-voltage rails.
For a sensor interface PCB requiring 8 signals, how does TSM-108-05-T-SH compare to a dual-row header in board space?
TSM-108-05-T-SH arranges all 8 positions in a single row at 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch, giving a footprint of approximately 20.32 mm × 8.89 mm, while a 2×4 dual-row header occupies only 10.16 mm in length—so the single-row strip uses more PCB length but simplifies cable harness routing with a single-row IDC connector.
Which cable assembly types mate with TSM-108-05-T-SH for a wire-to-board connection in embedded control systems?
TSM-108-05-T-SH mates with Samtec's CLM and TCSD series crimp-to-wire cable assemblies or standard 0.100-inch IDC ribbon connectors; both options support the 3 A per pin and 250 V ratings, making them suitable for 8-channel GPIO harnesses, 5 V logic buses, and low-current power distribution in embedded control boards.
When does the vertical SMT orientation of TSM-108-05-T-SH offer an assembly advantage over right-angle SMT alternatives?
Vertical SMT orientation minimizes the connector's height above the PCB surface and avoids overhanging board edges, which is advantageous when a mating cable enters perpendicular to the board plane—common in stacked PCB enclosures where a right-angle connector would exceed the 8-position module's height budget or conflict with adjacent components within 5 mm of the connector body.
