Frequently Asked Questions

For a connector with 18 pins, what footprint details should engineers verify before using TSM-118-03-STL-SH-A?

Engineers should confirm the 18 pins layout, mating height, orientation, and PCB land pattern against the SAMTEC drawing before releasing TSM-118-03-STL-SH-A for assembly.

Can TSM-118-03-STL-SH-A support board-to-board signal routing when the design needs 18 pins?

Yes, it is a practical connector choice when the documented 18 pins arrangement matches the mating connector, enclosure clearance, and required signal-routing density.

When replacing TSM-118-03-STL-SH-A, which 18 pins configuration details must purchasing keep unchanged?

Purchasing should preserve the exact 18 pins configuration, SAMTEC suffix, plating or termination option, and date-code traceability so alternates remain mechanically compatible.
