Key Features
- 25 positions on a 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch single-row vertical layout providing a compact, cost-effective 25-channel SMT terminal strip
- Short-mount (SM) and short height (SH) profile minimizes above-board height, ideal for low-profile PCB assemblies and slim enclosures
- Tin (P) plated contacts provide a cost-optimized finish suitable for high-volume commercial applications with moderate mating cycle requirements
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging supports automated pick-and-place machines for efficient high-volume SMT production
- Rated 1 A per contact and 125 V AC/DC, accommodating a broad range of signal and low-power control connections at standard logic levels
Applications
The TSM-125-05-SM-SH-P-TR is suited for consumer electronics, home automation systems, and industrial control boards where a compact 25-position single-row SMT terminal strip with a short profile is needed for signal and control connections. Its low-profile short-mount configuration makes it a good choice for slim enclosures and space-constrained PCBs in smart home devices, building automation controllers, and low-cost industrial I/O expansion modules. The tape-and-reel packaging enables seamless integration into automated high-volume SMT assembly lines.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the contact count and pitch of the TSM-125-05-SM-SH-P-TR terminal strip?
The TSM-125-05-SM-SH-P-TR provides 25 positions on a 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch in a single-row vertical layout, delivering 25 independent signal or control connections per connector. Each contact is rated at 1 A and 125 V AC/DC, supporting standard logic levels from 1.8 V to 12 V in commercial and light industrial PCB designs.
How does the short-mount (SM) and short height (SH) profile of TSM-125-05-SM-SH-P-TR benefit slim PCB assembly designs?
The SM and SH designations indicate that the TSM-125-05-SM-SH-P-TR has a reduced above-board protrusion compared to standard-height TSM variants, enabling total assembly heights of less than 8 mm. This makes the connector suitable for slim consumer electronics housings, flat panel controller boards, and portable industrial devices with tight mechanical enclosure constraints of under 15 mm in total thickness.
When is tin plating on TSM-125-05-SM-SH-P-TR contacts preferred over a gold-plated alternative?
Tin (P) plating on the TSM-125-05-SM-SH-P-TR contacts is preferred in high-volume commercial applications where the connector undergoes fewer than 100 mating cycles over its lifetime and cost reduction is a priority. Tin-plated contacts can reduce connector unit cost by 30% to 50% compared to gold-plated variants, making the TSM-125-05-SM-SH-P-TR ideal for consumer home automation devices and industrial equipment produced at volumes exceeding 50,000 units per year.
What reflow soldering process is compatible with the TSM-125-05-SM-SH-P-TR surface mount termination?
The TSM-125-05-SM-SH-P-TR is designed for standard SMT reflow soldering at peak temperatures up to 260 °C, consistent with JEDEC J-STD-020 guidelines. Its tape-and-reel (TR) packaging supports direct loading into automated pick-and-place machines using standard 24 mm or 32 mm feeders, enabling assembly throughput of 5,000 to 10,000 components per hour on standard SMT production lines.
How does the single-row layout of TSM-125-05-SM-SH-P-TR compare to a dual-row strip for 25-pin PCB connectors in terms of board length?
The single-row 25-pin TSM-125-05-SM-SH-P-TR occupies approximately 60 mm of PCB length at 0.100-inch pitch, compared to a dual-row 25-position strip that would occupy about 30 mm by using 13 to 14 pins per row. Single-row layouts are preferred when trace routing on only one side of the connector row is needed, or when the PCB has sufficient length budget but limited board width, as in narrow I/O expansion boards measuring 20 mm to 25 mm wide.
