What are the key features of TSM-125-02-TL-SH-A?

  • 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch dual-row SMT terminal strip with 25 positions, providing a familiar standard pitch for broad compatibility with common PCB grid layouts
  • Single-row horizontal (SH) surface-mount footprint enables low-profile PCB-edge signal routing without through-hole drilling, simplifying SMT-only board fabrication
  • Tin-lead (TL) contact finish option supports standard solder reflow processes and ensures compatibility with legacy soldering systems and mixed-alloy assembly environments

What is TSM-125-02-TL-SH-A used for?

The TSM-125-02-TL-SH-A surface-mount terminal strip is used in industrial control boards, embedded computing modules, and consumer electronics where a standard 0.100-inch pitch horizontal connector is needed for board-edge signal access. Its dual-row 25-pin layout supports moderate-density I/O routing in test jigs and prototype development platforms. The SMT horizontal orientation allows integration into fully automated reflow assembly lines without secondary hand-soldering operations.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many pins does the TSM-125-02-TL-SH-A provide and at what pitch, compared to finer-pitch SAMTEC alternatives?

The TSM-125-02-TL-SH-A provides 25 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration at 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch, which is the classic standard pitch widely used in development boards and industrial PCBs. Compared to SAMTEC's 0.050-inch pitch TFM series, it offers larger pad spacing and easier manual assembly, but occupies roughly 4x more board area for an equivalent pin count.

For a PCB-edge interface in an industrial test fixture, what advantages does the horizontal SMT orientation of the TSM-125-02-TL-SH-A offer?

The single-row horizontal (SH) SMT orientation positions the mating interface parallel to the PCB surface, making it well-suited for PCB-edge test access and board-to-cable connections in fixture designs. Since it is surface-mount, no through-hole drilling is required, reducing board fabrication cost and allowing the 25-pin interface to be placed in the same SMT reflow step as other components, saving assembly time.

Is the TSM-125-02-TL-SH-A compatible with standard lead-free solder reflow processes, or does it require special handling?

The TL designator in the TSM-125-02-TL-SH-A indicates a tin-lead contact finish, which is optimized for conventional eutectic solder (63/37 Sn/Pb) reflow at peak temperatures around 183°C. For RoHS-compliant lead-free builds requiring SAC305 alloy at peak temperatures near 260°C, the standard (non-TL) variant or a compatible Pb-free option from SAMTEC's TSM series should be selected instead.

What are typical procurement lead times and packaging options for the TSM-125-02-TL-SH-A?

SAMTEC's TSM series products are typically available through distribution with lead times as short as 1 week via Tiger Buy stocking programs, and the TSM-125-02-TL-SH-A ships worldwide. SMT variants are available in tape-and-reel packaging for automated pick-and-place feeders, and volume pricing tiers begin at quantities of 100 pieces, making it cost-effective for both prototyping and production runs.
