Key Features
- 66 total contacts in dual-row layout on 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch
- High-profile (H option) contact height for improved mating connector clearance
- Keyed (K option) configuration to prevent incorrect mating connector insertion
- Surface mount termination for standard reflow soldering compatibility
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enabling automated SMT pick-and-place assembly
Applications
The TSM-133-03-H-DH-A-K-TR is specified for high-density embedded computing backplanes, industrial I/O expansion boards, and test and measurement equipment that require 66 signal contacts on a 0.100 inch pitch surface mount strip. Its keyed high-profile design protects against reverse mating in field-assembled systems, while the tape-and-reel format supports automated SMT production at scale.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the high-profile (H) option on the TSM-133-03-H-DH-A-K-TR change compared to a standard-height 66-pin strip?
The high-profile contact height on the TSM-133-03-H-DH-A-K-TR raises the mating interface above the PCB surface, providing additional clearance for taller mating connector housings and reducing the risk of interference between adjacent 0.100 inch pitch components during board assembly and cabling.
For a 66-position backplane connector, how does keying reduce field assembly errors?
The keyed (K) option physically blocks insertion of a mating connector in the wrong orientation across all 66 positions of this dual-row 0.100 inch pitch strip; in backplane systems where multiple identical-looking connectors are adjacent, keying is the primary mechanical safeguard against mis-wiring that could damage digital I/O or power rails.
Can the TSM-133-03-H-DH-A-K-TR be processed through a standard lead-free SMT reflow line?
Yes. The TSM-133-03-H-DH-A-K-TR uses surface mount termination compatible with lead-free reflow profiles; its 66-contact dual-row footprint at 0.100 inch pitch solders in a single reflow pass alongside other SMT components, and the tape-and-reel packaging feeds directly into pick-and-place machines without manual handling.
How should a designer evaluate whether 66 contacts at 0.100 inch pitch fits within available PCB area?
A dual-row 66-contact strip at 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch spans approximately 33 positions per row, requiring roughly 3.3 inches (83 mm) of board length along the connector axis; designers should verify this footprint against their PCB keep-out zones and route escape traces perpendicular to the long axis to avoid congestion under the connector body.
