Key Features
- 58-position (2x29) dual-row .100" (2.54 mm) pitch SMT terminal strip
- Shorting type long (STL) contact configuration for bridging or shunting circuit functions
- Dual-height (DH) housing provides additional mechanical stability on the PCB
- Press-fit (P) tail design for reliable mechanical attachment without soldering
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging for automated pick-and-place SMT assembly lines
Applications
The TSM-129-03-STL-DH-A-P-TR is designed for high-density PCB interconnect applications that require shorting functionality, such as configuration jumper arrays, test access interfaces, and module-to-backplane connections in industrial control and embedded computing systems. Its 58-position dual-row layout and press-fit tails support robust board attachment in environments where vibration resistance is important.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the STL contact designation mean on TSM-129-03-STL-DH-A-P-TR and when is it used?
The STL designation indicates a shorting type long contact, which bridges or shorts adjacent pins in a 58-position (2x29) dual-row layout at .100" (2.54 mm) pitch. This configuration is used in jumper arrays, configuration headers, and test access points where selective shorting of signal pairs is required in embedded or industrial PCB designs.
How does the press-fit tail design on TSM-129-03-STL-DH-A-P-TR differ from standard soldered SMT connectors?
Press-fit (P) tails create a gas-tight mechanical connection by pressing into plated PCB holes, eliminating the need for solder in the termination zone. For the 58-position TSM-129-03-STL-DH-A-P-TR, this provides a reworkable and vibration-resistant joint, useful in industrial assemblies where selective connector replacement or high mechanical stress over the .100" grid is expected.
What procurement and packaging considerations apply to ordering TSM-129-03-STL-DH-A-P-TR for automated SMT lines?
The -TR suffix specifies tape-and-reel packaging, enabling direct loading into automated pick-and-place machines without manual handling of individual 58-pin connectors. Buyers should verify reel quantity minimums and check stock availability at SAMTEC-authorized distributors, as the STL (shorting long) contact variant may have different stocking levels than standard non-shorting TSM series parts.
