What are the key features of TSM-118-05-SM-SH-P-TR?

  • 18-position dual-row surface-mount terminal strip at 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch with single-row vertical mating for flexible board-to-cable or board-to-board connections
  • SH (shrouded housing) variant provides mechanical keying and contact protection, preventing mis-mating and shielding 18 male contacts during handling
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enables automated SMT pick-and-place placement, streamlining high-volume assembly and reducing per-unit handling cost

What is TSM-118-05-SM-SH-P-TR used for?

The TSM-118-05-SM-SH-P-TR is used in surface-mount board interconnect applications requiring 18 signal or power connections at the standard 0.100" pitch, such as industrial controller backplanes, embedded computing edge nodes, and communication equipment basecards. The single-row vertical mating orientation and shrouded housing support reliable cable-to-board connections in vibration-prone environments like factory automation equipment and robotic systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should a footprint review cover for the 18-contact TSM-118-05-SM-SH-P-TR?

A proper review maps the documented 18 pins, verifies pad numbering and mating orientation, and checks insertion clearance and board stack dimensions against the current SAMTEC drawing.

Which traceability controls are useful when ordering TSM-118-05-SM-SH-P-TR for production?

The purchase specification should name TSM-118-05-SM-SH-P-TR exactly, confirm the 18 pins, and require manufacturer marking, lot traceability, packaging condition, and mating compatibility before incoming inspection acceptance.

How should designers evaluate TSM-118-05-SM-SH-P-TR for a module interface?

Start from the documented 18 pins and intended connector function, then verify signal count, pitch, stack height, polarization, and mechanical retention within the actual module assembly.
