- Formed (FM) lead style optimizes solder joint geometry for reliable SMT reflow assembly
- Four-ear (04) mounting configuration adds mechanical retention to the PCB for vibration resistance
- Surface mount termination compatible with standard automated SMT pick-and-place assembly
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging supports high-volume production manufacturing
Applications
TSM-117-04-FM-DH-P-TR is designed for board-to-board and module interconnect applications in industrial automation, embedded systems, and transportation electronics where connector mechanical retention under vibration is a concern. The four mounting ears and formed lead style provide additional PCB anchoring across all 34 positions, extending connector service life in mechanically demanding environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What role do the four mounting ears (04 designation) play in the mechanical performance of TSM-117-04-FM-DH-P-TR?
The four mounting ears on TSM-117-04-FM-DH-P-TR add additional solder anchor points beyond the 34 signal contacts, significantly increasing the connector's resistance to shear and pull-out forces. In vibration-prone applications such as transportation electronics or factory automation, these 4 ears can reduce solder joint fatigue on the signal contacts by distributing mechanical loads across additional PCB pad connections.
How does TSM-117-04-FM-DH-P-TR differ from TSM-117-02-FM-DH-P-TR, and when should designers choose the four-ear version?
TSM-117-04-FM-DH-P-TR adds 4 mounting ears for enhanced mechanical retention, while TSM-117-02-FM-DH-P-TR uses 2 ears. Both share the same 34-position dual-row 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch layout and FM lead style, but designers should specify the 04 (four-ear) version when the application involves vibration levels exceeding IEC 60068-2-6 test conditions or when the connector is expected to survive repeated mating cycles under mechanical stress.
What is the operating temperature range of TSM-117-04-FM-DH-P-TR and does it qualify for transportation or outdoor industrial use?
SAMTEC TSM series connectors are rated from -55°C to 125°C operating temperature. TSM-117-04-FM-DH-P-TR is therefore qualified for transportation electronics and outdoor industrial equipment that must operate across wide seasonal and environmental temperature extremes, well exceeding the -40°C to 85°C range required by most commercial industrial standards.
For a high-volume PCB line, how does TSM-117-04-FM-DH-P-TR tape-and-reel packaging streamline assembly?
TSM-117-04-FM-DH-P-TR in tape-and-reel (TR) format feeds directly into standard pick-and-place machines without manual orientation, supporting high-speed automated assembly at throughput rates exceeding 10,000 placements per hour on modern SMT lines. Reel-based packaging also reduces operator handling and contamination risk compared to tray or bulk packaging for 34-position dual-row connectors.
