What are the key features of TSM-109-01-TL-DH-A-P-TR?
- 18-position dual-height surface mount terminal strip at 0.100" pitch with anti-mismatching polarization to prevent connector mis-insertion
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enables high-speed automated pick-and-place placement on standard SMT reflow lines
- Dual-height (DH) profile accommodates stacked or elevated board-to-board mating while maintaining 0.100" pitch signal integrity across all 18 positions
What is TSM-109-01-TL-DH-A-P-TR used for?
The TSM-109-01-TL-DH-A-P-TR is suited for surface mount board-to-board and board-to-cable interconnections in embedded systems, industrial controllers, and communications hardware where dual-height clearance and polarization are required. Its 18-position 0.100" pitch layout and tape-and-reel packaging make it particularly efficient in automated assembly of control modules and interface boards where mis-polarization prevention is a design requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the dual-height feature of TSM-109-01-TL-DH-A-P-TR accommodate stacked board designs?
The dual-height (DH) profile of TSM-109-01-TL-DH-A-P-TR provides additional clearance between mated boards, allowing components mounted near the connector on either PCB to clear the opposing board surface. This is critical in stacked board assemblies where a standard single-height connector at 0.100" pitch would create mechanical interference with nearby capacitors, ICs, or heat sinks on the mating board's inner surface.
Which production scenarios make the tape-and-reel packaging of TSM-109-01-TL-DH-A-P-TR most cost-effective?
The TR packaging of TSM-109-01-TL-DH-A-P-TR provides the greatest cost benefit in medium to high-volume SMT production runs where automated pick-and-place machines place the 18-pin connector at 0.100" pitch without manual intervention. Automated placement reduces per-unit labor cost and ensures consistent solder paste coverage across all 18 positions, lowering defect rates compared to hand-placement of similarly sized terminal strips.
For an industrial controller PCB, why is the polarization feature of TSM-109-01-TL-DH-A-P-TR important?
The polarization feature (P) in TSM-109-01-TL-DH-A-P-TR physically prevents reverse insertion of the mating connector into the 18-position terminal strip at 0.100" pitch. In industrial control environments where technicians may swap or reconnect boards under time pressure, this mechanical keying eliminates the risk of applying reverse voltage or incorrect signal routing across 18 lines, which could damage connected ICs or sensors rated for specific signal polarities.
