Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the TSM-128-03-L-DH-A-K-TR provide, and how are they arranged across rows?
The SAMTEC TSM-128-03-L-DH-A-K-TR is a 56-position connector with dual rows of 28 contacts each, spaced at 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch. This configuration supports a wide variety of signal, power, and ground assignments across 56 pins, suitable for complex embedded controller interfaces and industrial I/O boards.
What is the purpose of the keying option in the TSM-128-03-L-DH-A-K-TR and when is it critical to specify?
The keying (K) option on the TSM-128-03-L-DH-A-K-TR adds a physical polarization key that prevents the mating connector from being inserted in the wrong orientation. This is critical in 56-pin interfaces where accidental reverse insertion could cause power rail shorts or GPIO damage, particularly in field-serviceable industrial equipment with multiple connector types on the same PCB.
For a right-angle board-edge PCB layout, what height advantage does the TSM-128-03-L-DH-A-K-TR offer?
The right-angle (L) profile of the TSM-128-03-L-DH-A-K-TR orients the mating interface parallel to the PCB surface, keeping the above-board connector height typically under 8 mm. This is beneficial in panel-mount or rack-mounted applications where clearance is limited, and allows front-panel cable access without additional connector extensions or flex harnesses.
Is the TSM-128-03-L-DH-A-K-TR a good choice for servo drive or motor controller I/O expansion boards?
Yes. The 56-position dual-row design at 0.100 inch pitch provides enough pins to accommodate encoder feedback signals, PWM command lines, analog references, enable inputs, and fault outputs on a single 56-pin connector. Right-angle mounting and keying reduce assembly errors during maintenance, which is valuable in multi-axis servo drive cabinets requiring frequent board removal.
