Key Features
- 16-position dual-row layout on 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch providing compact signal distribution for embedded and consumer electronics PCBs
- Shrouded body (SH) ensures correct connector orientation and prevents mis-mating, reducing assembly errors during board build
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enables automated pick-and-place at high production volumes with standard SMT feeder systems
Applications
The TSM-116-05-S-SH-P-TR is suitable for board-to-board and wire-to-board signal interconnects in consumer electronics, industrial controllers, and communications modules requiring up to 16 contacts on 0.100 inch pitch. The shrouded design protects contacts from accidental damage during PCB handling and ensures polarized mating to prevent reversed connections. Its surface mount single-row vertical tail configuration and tape-and-reel format make it compatible with modern reflow solder assembly in high-volume production.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many contacts does the TSM-116-05-S-SH-P-TR provide, and what is its row configuration?
The TSM-116-05-S-SH-P-TR provides 16 contacts in a dual-row arrangement on a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch, with 8 contacts per row. This compact layout is well suited for PCB interfaces requiring up to 16 signal or power lines in a standard 0.100 inch footprint.
What protection does the shrouded body of the TSM-116-05-S-SH-P-TR provide during mating?
The shroud (SH) mechanically guides the mating connector into correct alignment and prevents insertion in the wrong orientation, protecting all 16 contacts from bent pins or reversed polarity connections. This reduces field failures and rework rates in equipment that is assembled or serviced frequently.
When is the TSM-116-05-S-SH-P-TR a better fit than a through-hole header for a 16-pin interface?
The SMT version is preferred when the PCB assembly uses a reflow-only process, when through-hole drilling would add fabrication cost, or when board space is tight and eliminating via barrel clearances gains 10-15% more routing channels. It is also required in double-sided SMT assemblies where wave soldering is not available.
How does tape-and-reel packaging affect placement accuracy for the TSM-116-05-S-SH-P-TR in automated assembly?
Tape-and-reel delivery positions each connector in a fixed pocket at a repeatable orientation, allowing SMT pick-and-place machines to achieve placement repeatability within ±0.05 mm. Combined with the peg or SMT footprint, this keeps the 0.100 inch dual-row contact pads aligned with solder paste deposits, reducing misalignment defects at reflow.
