Key Features
- 29 dual-row positions at 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch, compatible with the broad ecosystem of SAMTEC TSM/THM mating headers
- Tin-plated contact finish offering a cost-effective alternative for lower-cycle applications with standard reflow compatibility up to 260°C
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging for direct pick-and-place machine loading in high-volume SMT production
Applications
The TSM-129-05-TM-SH-P-TR is applied in industrial automation controllers, embedded SBC expansion headers, and power electronics boards where 29 dual-row connections at 2.54 mm pitch are needed in a surface-mount footprint. Its standard 0.100" pitch ensures broad mating-connector availability, making it a practical choice for prototype runs and cost-sensitive production designs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the tin-plated finish of the TSM-129-05-TM-SH-P-TR differ from gold-plated SAMTEC alternatives for low-cycle applications?
The tin-plated (P option) contacts of the TSM-129-05-TM-SH-P-TR provide adequate low contact resistance for applications requiring fewer than 25 mating cycles, at a lower unit cost than gold-plated alternatives. For high-cycle test fixtures needing hundreds of insertions, a gold-plated variant would be preferred to maintain stable resistance across all 29 dual-row positions.
What reflow profile is compatible with the surface-mount TSM-129-05-TM-SH-P-TR, and how does tape-and-reel help production?
The TSM-129-05-TM-SH-P-TR is compatible with standard SAC305 or Sn63Pb37 reflow profiles with a peak temperature up to 260°C. Tape-and-reel packaging lets pick-and-place machines load the 29-position connector directly from the reel, eliminating manual placement and ensuring consistent positioning accuracy across high-volume SMT production runs.
Which board-to-board applications benefit from the 0.100" pitch of the TSM-129-05-TM-SH-P-TR?
At 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch, the TSM-129-05-TM-SH-P-TR mates with the widest range of through-hole and SMT headers in the SAMTEC TSM and THM series, as well as many third-party 2.54 mm headers. This universal compatibility makes it ideal for SBC GPIO expansion connectors, Arduino-style shield interfaces, and industrial fieldbus backplane boards where sourcing mating connectors from multiple suppliers is important.
