What are the key features of TSM-131-03-TL-SH-A?

  • 31-position dual-row surface-mount terminal strip at 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch for compact, high-density PCB interfaces
  • Horizontal (TL) tail and shielded (SH) housing reduce EMI emissions and improve signal integrity in noise-sensitive designs
  • SMT termination eliminates through-hole drilling, supporting double-sided PCB assembly and automated reflow soldering processes

What is TSM-131-03-TL-SH-A used for?

The TSM-131-03-TL-SH-A is designed for surface-mount applications in industrial controllers, communication modules, and embedded computing boards where a 31-position dual-row header with EMI shielding is required. Its horizontal tail geometry suits low-profile board-to-board mating configurations, and the shielded housing supports designs operating in electromagnetically noisy environments such as motor drives and RF equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What configuration and pitch does TSM-131-03-TL-SH-A offer for board-to-board connections?

The TSM-131-03-TL-SH-A is a 31-position dual-row terminal strip at 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch with surface-mount termination. Its dual-row layout provides 62 total contacts in a standard pitch that mates with a wide range of industry-standard receptacles and cable assemblies used in industrial and embedded computing designs.

How does the SH (shielded) option benefit signal integrity in the TSM-131-03-TL-SH-A?

The shielded housing (SH suffix) provides a grounded metal enclosure around the 31-position connector body, attenuating radiated EMI from high-speed or high-current signals. This shielding is especially beneficial in mixed-signal PCB designs where digital switching noise must be isolated from sensitive analog or RF circuits operating in the same enclosure.

In a compact industrial controller design, what advantage does the SMT format of TSM-131-03-TL-SH-A provide over a through-hole equivalent?

The surface-mount format eliminates 62 through-holes from the PCB, reducing fabrication cost and allowing components to be placed on both sides of the board. This enables denser layouts in compact industrial controllers and supports high-volume automated reflow soldering assembly at standard lead-free peak temperatures of approximately 260°C.
