What are the key features of TSM-120-02-FM-DH-P-TR?

  • 40-position dual-row terminal strip with 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch for standard-density board interconnects
  • Friction-mating (FM) contact design providing secure mating without latching for easy field service
  • Surface-mount (SM) termination enabling SMT reflow assembly on standard PCB pads
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging for automated pick-and-place production efficiency
  • Dual-row layout providing 20 positions per row in a compact 0.100-inch pitch SMT footprint

What is TSM-120-02-FM-DH-P-TR used for?

The TSM-120-02-FM-DH-P-TR is used in embedded single-board computers, industrial control modules, and test equipment where a 40-position dual-row 0.100-inch pitch SMT terminal strip with friction-mating contacts is needed for easy and reliable board interconnection. Its friction-mating design simplifies field servicing by enabling connection and disconnection without locking mechanisms, making it practical for applications that require periodic board removal or replacement in 40-pin dual-row configurations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the friction-mating (FM) feature of the TSM-120-02-FM-DH-P-TR, and when is it preferred over latching connectors?

The friction-mating (FM) design of the TSM-120-02-FM-DH-P-TR uses contact spring force across its 40 positions to maintain connection without a mechanical latch, making it easier to insert and remove the mated connector during field service. This is preferred in applications where 0.100-inch pitch dual-row connectors are frequently disconnected, such as in test fixtures or serviceable industrial boards.

How many positions per row does the TSM-120-02-FM-DH-P-TR provide, and how does this affect PCB layout?

The TSM-120-02-FM-DH-P-TR provides 20 positions per row in its dual-row configuration, totaling 40 pins at 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch. This standard pitch and 40-pin count allows straightforward integration into PCB layouts using common 0.100-inch grid design rules, making it compatible with a wide range of embedded computing and industrial interface board designs.

What packaging format is used for the TSM-120-02-FM-DH-P-TR, and what does this mean for assembly planning?

The TSM-120-02-FM-DH-P-TR is supplied in tape-and-reel (TR) format, enabling efficient automated pick-and-place SMT assembly for high-volume manufacturing. Production planners should specify reel quantities when ordering 40-position SAMTEC TSM SMT terminal strips to minimize changeover time and ensure consistent feeder-to-board placement accuracy.

How does the TSM-120-02-FM-DH-P-TR compare to alternatives with more pins when specifying board interconnect density?

The TSM-120-02-FM-DH-P-TR's 40-position, 0.100-inch pitch dual-row configuration offers moderate pin density suitable for boards needing fewer than 56 or 60 pins. When higher pin counts are required, SAMTEC TSM-128 or TSM-130 series connectors at the same 0.100-inch pitch provide 56 or 60 positions, allowing designers to scale interconnect density while maintaining the same SMT footprint and mating system.
