Frequently Asked Questions

What pitch and position count does the TSM-120-01-L-SH-A provide?

The TSM-120-01-L-SH-A offers 20 positions in a dual-row configuration with a 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch. The body length is 2 inches, and the horizontal (SH) orientation is designed for surface mount assembly on standard PCBs with tin-over-nickel contact finish for reliable electrical connectivity.

Which industrial or embedded control applications are best served by the TSM-120-01-L-SH-A?

This terminal strip is well suited for parallel data bus headers, GPIO expansion connectors, and power distribution rails in PLCs, industrial controllers, and embedded development boards. Its 20-position dual-row layout at 2.54 mm pitch can carry multiple signal lines simultaneously, and its 2-inch body length accommodates densely packed interface headers operating at logic levels from 3.3 V to 5 V.

How does the TSM-120-01-L-SH-A differ from through-hole terminal strips with the same pitch?

The TSM-120-01-L-SH-A uses horizontal surface mount (SMT) termination rather than through-hole pins, enabling reflow soldering without drilling the PCB. This reduces manufacturing steps and supports automated placement on boards with 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch footprints. The SMT approach also allows the 20-position connector to sit flush against the board surface, reducing overall assembly height.

Is the TSM-120-01-L-SH-A compliant with lead-free assembly requirements?

Yes, the TSM-120-01-L-SH-A is RoHS compliant (Pb-free code: Yes), making it suitable for lead-free reflow soldering processes. Its tin-over-nickel contact finish is compatible with standard Sn-based solder alloys used in modern electronics manufacturing, and the 20-position, 2.54 mm pitch design meets typical JEDEC-aligned land pattern requirements.
