What are the key features of TSM-131-01-H-DH-A-K-TR?

  • 62-position SMT terminal strip at 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch with dual-height (-DH) mating profile flexibility
  • Key (-K) locking feature prevents incorrect mating orientation and provides additional retention in vibration-prone environments
  • Tape-and-reel (-TR) packaging enables seamless integration into automated SMT pick-and-place assembly lines

What is TSM-131-01-H-DH-A-K-TR used for?

The TSM-131-01-H-DH-A-K-TR is designed for board-to-board interconnects in industrial automation, embedded control systems, and equipment requiring positive keying to prevent mis-mating. Its 62-position, 0.100" pitch layout makes it compatible with standard PCB grids in single-board computers and expansion cards. The locking key feature is especially valuable in applications exposed to mechanical shock or vibration, such as robotics and transportation electronics.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the function of the -K key feature on the TSM-131-01-H-DH-A-K-TR and when is it critically important?

The -K suffix on the TSM-131-01-H-DH-A-K-TR designates a keying feature that physically prevents incorrect orientation during mating of the 62-position connector. This is critically important in field-serviceable equipment, automotive systems, or industrial robots where a mis-mated connector across 62 pins could damage circuitry operating at 3.3 V or 5 V logic levels and cause system failures.

How does the dual-height (-DH) design of TSM-131-01-H-DH-A-K-TR support varied PCB stacking requirements?

The -DH (dual height) feature allows the TSM-131-01-H-DH-A-K-TR to mate with connectors at 2 different board-to-board standoff heights, eliminating the need for separate SKUs in designs where board spacing may vary by a few millimeters. This flexibility is valuable in modular embedded computing and backplane expansion cards that share a common 62-pin, 0.100" pitch interface but have different mechanical housing depths.

For a vibration-intensive robotics application, what advantages does TSM-131-01-H-DH-A-K-TR offer over an unkeyed 62-pin connector?

In a robotics application, the TSM-131-01-H-DH-A-K-TR provides 3 distinct advantages over an unkeyed alternative: the -K keying feature prevents mis-mating during maintenance in the field, the 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch contacts provide robust mechanical retention across all 62 positions, and the -A right-angle or horizontal orientation option can route the mating interface away from the primary vibration axis to reduce connector fatigue and intermittent contact failures.
