Key Features
- 34-position dual-row SMT terminal strip with 2.54 mm (0.100") pitch for high-density board connections
- Gold-plated contacts rated for 3 A current per pin with reliable low-resistance performance
- Tape-and-reel packaging (TR suffix) enables automated PCB assembly for high-volume production
- FM (friction mount) and DH (dual-row horizontal) design for compact surface-mount footprint
Applications
The TSM-117-03-FM-DH-A-K-TR is well suited for high-density PCB interconnect applications where dual-row surface-mount headers are needed, including backplane daughtercard interfaces, test and measurement equipment, and embedded computing platforms. Its tape-and-reel packaging supports automated pick-and-place assembly in high-volume manufacturing environments. The 0.100" pitch and gold-plated contacts make it a reliable choice for signal and low-power distribution in industrial control and communications hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the pitch and row configuration of the TSM-117-03-FM-DH-A-K-TR?
The TSM-117-03-FM-DH-A-K-TR uses a 2.54 mm (0.100") pitch with a dual-row (DH) arrangement totaling 34 positions across 2 rows of 17 pins each, making it suitable for high-density surface-mount header applications.
How does the gold plating on TSM-117-03-FM-DH-A-K-TR contacts affect reliability in signal applications?
Gold plating provides a low-contact-resistance interface typically below 30 mΩ and resists oxidation over hundreds of mating cycles, ensuring signal integrity at currents up to 3 A per contact in demanding PCB interconnect environments.
Is the TSM-117-03-FM-DH-A-K-TR suitable for automated assembly lines?
Yes, the TR (tape-and-reel) suffix confirms it is packaged for automated pick-and-place equipment. The SMT footprint with 2.54 mm pitch is compatible with standard placement machines, enabling high-throughput assembly at volumes exceeding 1000 units per reel.
What operating temperature range is supported by the TSM-117-03-FM-DH-A-K-TR?
SAMTEC TSM series connectors are rated for an operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, making them suitable for industrial and military-grade PCB designs exposed to wide thermal cycling.
