Key Features
- 12-position dual-row terminal strip on 0.100" pitch offers reliable, high-density interconnect for through-board signal routing
- Shrouded housing (SH suffix) provides polarization and mating guidance to prevent misaligned insertion in field assembly
- Top-load contact style (TL suffix) simplifies wire insertion and reduces assembly time in harness manufacturing
- Surface-mount footprint enables direct PCB placement without through-hole drilling, reducing board fabrication cost
Applications
The TSM-112-05-TL-SH-A is used in industrial automation, test and measurement equipment, and embedded systems where a 12-position 0.100" shrouded terminal strip is needed for secure wire-to-board connections. Its top-load contact design streamlines field wiring and maintenance in control panels and sensor interface modules. The surface-mount construction supports automated assembly on high-mix PCB production lines.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the TSM-112-05-TL-SH-A provide, and what is its contact pitch?
The TSM-112-05-TL-SH-A provides 12 positions arranged in a dual-row layout at a 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch. This standard 0.100" pitch is compatible with a wide range of mating plugs and discrete wire harnesses used in industrial and consumer electronics assembly.
What does the shrouded housing on the TSM-112-05-TL-SH-A add compared to an unshrouded terminal strip?
The shrouded housing (SH suffix) adds a polarizing keying feature and mechanical guide that prevents misalignment during mating, reducing field assembly errors. It also provides protection to the 12 contacts from accidental damage during handling, which extends connector service life in harsh environments rated down to -55°C.
Can the TSM-112-05-TL-SH-A handle signal and low-power connections simultaneously?
Yes, the TSM-112-05-TL-SH-A supports mixed signal and low-power routing across its 12 positions, with each contact rated for typical current levels of 1 A or more per pin depending on wire gauge. The 0.100" pitch dual-row layout provides enough spacing for both power and ground distribution alongside signal lines in compact PCB designs.
