Key Features
- 36-position dual-row SMT terminal strip on 0.100" pitch for high-density board interconnect
- Polarization peg (P) prevents incorrect mating orientation, reducing assembly errors in dual-row configurations
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enables automated pick-and-place assembly for high-volume production runs
Applications
The TSM-118-02-SS-DH-P-TR dual-row SMT terminal strip is ideal for high-density backplane and module interconnect designs in telecommunications, server, and industrial automation equipment. Its 36-position layout at 0.100-inch pitch provides extensive signal routing in a compact footprint suitable for complex multi-rail power and data interfaces. Tape-and-reel packaging streamlines automated pick-and-place assembly in volume manufacturing environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the TSM-118-02-SS-DH-P-TR support and what pitch does it use?
The TSM-118-02-SS-DH-P-TR is a 36-position, dual-row surface mount terminal strip with a standard 0.100-inch pitch. This configuration provides 18 contacts per row, delivering high-density connectivity suited for backplane and module-to-board interface designs requiring many simultaneous signal or power connections.
What does the polarization peg (P suffix) contribute to the TSM-118-02-SS-DH-P-TR assembly process?
The polarization peg feature of the TSM-118-02-SS-DH-P-TR mechanically prevents incorrect orientation during mating by introducing an asymmetric physical key. In a 36-position dual-row connector, misalignment could damage all 36 contacts simultaneously, so the peg provides critical protection in high-speed data and power applications on 0.100-inch pitch boards.
When should engineers select the TSM-118-02-SS-DH-P-TR over a single-row terminal strip for a high-speed data bus design?
For designs requiring more than 18 signals within the same 0.100-inch pitch footprint, the dual-row TSM-118-02-SS-DH-P-TR provides 36 positions in a body length of approximately 1.8 inches, halving the board space compared to a single-row alternative. This is particularly valuable in server backplanes and FPGA carrier cards where PCB real estate is constrained.
