What are the key features of TSM-109-05-STL-SH?
- 9-position single-row SMT terminal strip at 2.54mm (0.100 inch) pitch for universal compatibility with standard 0.1 inch PCB headers
- Vertical surface mount orientation simplifies PCB layout by keeping the connector profile low and the mating direction perpendicular to the board
- Gold-plated contacts deliver low and stable contact resistance for reliable signal and low-power connections in test and prototyping environments
- Single-row layout enables easy hand-probing and debugging access on prototype boards while maintaining solder joint reliability in production assemblies
What is TSM-109-05-STL-SH used for?
The Samtec TSM-109-05-STL-SH terminal strip is widely used on development boards, evaluation kits, and production interface cards where a standard 9-position 0.1-inch pitch SMT header is required for signal I/O or power distribution. Its single-row vertical orientation is compatible with ribbon cable connectors, jumper wires, and debug probes used in embedded systems development. The surface mount design enables reflow soldering in high-volume PCB assembly lines.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 2.54mm pitch of the TSM-109-05-STL-SH compare to fine-pitch SMT connectors for signal density?
The TSM-109-05-STL-SH uses the industry-standard 2.54mm (0.100 inch) pitch, which is twice the density of coarser 5.08mm pitch connectors while remaining far more accessible for hand-wiring and probing than 0.5mm or 0.8mm fine-pitch alternatives. Its 9-position span covers 22.86mm total, making it compatible with standard ribbon cable and jumper wire assemblies used in embedded development.
Can the TSM-109-05-STL-SH be soldered using a standard SMT reflow process for high-volume PCB production?
Yes, the TSM-109-05-STL-SH is a surface mount component designed for reflow soldering in standard SMT production lines. Its SMT pads conform to typical 0.1-inch pitch land patterns, and the vertical single-row body height allows it to pass through standard reflow oven profiles at peak temperatures around 260°C without thermal damage to the housing or contact plating.
Which embedded development or test scenarios benefit most from the 9-position layout of the TSM-109-05-STL-SH?
The 9-position TSM-109-05-STL-SH is ideal for SPI, I2C, or UART debug headers on microcontroller development boards, where 4 to 9 signal pins plus power and ground are needed for external programmer or logic analyzer connections. Single-row 0.1-inch pitch connectors are also standard in Arduino-compatible shields and Raspberry Pi expansion boards, making this strip a versatile choice across prototyping platforms.
How does the gold plating on the TSM-109-05-STL-SH contacts extend connector service life in test fixture applications?
Gold-plated contacts on the TSM-109-05-STL-SH resist oxidation and corrosion over thousands of mating cycles, maintaining contact resistance below a few milliohms even after extended use in test fixture environments. This durability is essential for development boards and production test jigs where connectors are mated and unmated repeatedly, unlike tin-plated alternatives that degrade noticeably after 100 to 200 cycles.
