What are the key features of TSM-117-05-H-SH-P-TR?

  • 17-position dual-row 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch SMT terminal strip with single-row vertical contact orientation
  • Shrouded housing (SH suffix) protecting 17 contacts from accidental damage and ensuring guided mating alignment
  • Polarization post (P suffix) preventing incorrect header insertion in field-serviceable PCB assemblies
  • Tape-and-reel packaging for seamless automated pick-and-place SMT assembly in high-volume production

What is TSM-117-05-H-SH-P-TR used for?

The TSM-117-05-H-SH-P-TR is used in embedded computing, industrial I/O boards, and control modules that route up to 17 signals between PCBs using the standard 2.54 mm pitch in a shrouded vertical connector format. The polarization post and shroud combination protects against mis-mating during field service, which is critical in panel-mounted or hot-swap industrial equipment. Its surface-mount tape-and-reel format allows full SMT assembly line integration for cost-efficient volume production.

Frequently Asked Questions

What distinguishes the shrouded housing of the TSM-117-05-H-SH-P-TR from standard unshrouded terminal strips?

The TSM-117-05-H-SH-P-TR features a shrouded housing (SH suffix) that surrounds all 17 contacts with a protective plastic wall, guiding the mating connector into proper alignment and shielding the 2.54 mm pitch pins from mechanical damage during insertion. Compared to unshrouded alternatives, the shroud significantly reduces the risk of bent pins or mis-mated connectors in field-service environments, improving long-term reliability of the 17-position board-to-board interface.

Can the TSM-117-05-H-SH-P-TR be used in designs requiring frequent module swaps, and how does the polarization post help?

Yes, the TSM-117-05-H-SH-P-TR is suitable for designs requiring frequent module swaps because its polarization post (P suffix) physically prevents incorrect insertion of the mating header, ensuring the 17 contacts at 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch always connect in the correct orientation. This feature is especially valuable in industrial rack systems or test fixtures where technicians replace PCB modules quickly and accurate pin-1 alignment cannot always be visually verified.

For a 17-signal SMT interconnect between two boards, how does the 0.100" pitch of the TSM-117-05-H-SH-P-TR compare to finer-pitch alternatives?

At 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch, the TSM-117-05-H-SH-P-TR occupies approximately 43 mm along the dual-row connector body for 17 positions. While finer-pitch connectors such as 0.050" pitch alternatives can achieve half that board length, the 2.54 mm pitch offers simpler PCB routing with wider trace clearances, lower-cost PCB fabrication, and compatibility with standard mating accessories including jumper bridges and 2.54 mm pitch ribbon cables, making it preferred for prototyping and industrial I/O applications where board space is not the primary constraint.
