What are the key features of TSM-112-05-L-SH?

  • 12-position single-row vertical surface mount terminal strip with standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch
  • Shrouded housing design providing polarized mating to prevent reverse insertion errors
  • Low-profile vertical SMT orientation enabling compact header connections at board edges
  • Tin-plated contacts compatible with standard lead-free reflow soldering at up to 260°C

What is TSM-112-05-L-SH used for?

The TSM-112-05-L-SH is used as a 12-pin single-row interface header for signal routing in embedded microcontroller systems, industrial sensors, and communication interface boards. Its 0.100" pitch shrouded SMT design makes it ideal for panel-mount signal breakout, GPIO expansion headers, and module-to-cable connectors in consumer electronics and automation equipment. The vertical single-row configuration provides convenient board-edge access for field wiring and prototyping connections on development platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many signal connections does the TSM-112-05-L-SH provide per connector?

The TSM-112-05-L-SH provides 12 contact positions in a single-row configuration at 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch. This layout supports 12 independent signal, power, or ground connections per connector, spanning approximately 27.94 mm of board length, suitable for GPIO expansion, parallel data bus, and power distribution headers in embedded systems.

What is the benefit of the shrouded housing on the TSM-112-05-L-SH for field-serviceable applications?

The shrouded housing on the TSM-112-05-L-SH provides mechanical keying that prevents reverse or offset mating with compatible receptacles. This polarization feature is critical in field-serviceable applications where cables must be reconnected under limited visibility, reducing the risk of connector damage or miswiring in 12-position signal harnesses operating at 3.3 V to 5 V logic levels.

What type of mating connectors are compatible with the TSM-112-05-L-SH at 0.100" pitch?

The TSM-112-05-L-SH mates with standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch single-row receptacle housings and crimp-style socket connectors. Compatible mating connectors include SAMTEC's SSW and SQW series receptacles, as well as industry-standard 12-position 0.100" pitch IDC and crimp housings for ribbon cable termination in 12-wire signal harness assemblies.

When should TSM-112-05-L-SH be chosen over through-hole terminal strips for prototype PCBs?

TSM-112-05-L-SH is preferred over through-hole strips when the design uses SMT-only PCB fabrication, eliminating the need for drilling 12 through-holes. The SMT version supports automated reflow assembly at up to 260°C, reduces component insertion time, and enables use on single-layer or thin PCBs where a 0.100" pitch 12-position vertical header is needed for GPIO or interface breakout.
