Key Features
- 68-position dual-row right-angle surface mount terminal strip with .100" (2.54 mm) pitch for horizontal board-to-board connections
- Gold-plated contacts rated at 3A per pin deliver reliable low-contact-resistance performance in demanding environments
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enables efficient automated pick-and-place assembly for high-volume production runs
Applications
The TSM-134-02-L-DH-A-K-TR is well suited for backplane systems, rack-mount computing modules, and industrial automation controllers that require high pin-count right-angle surface mount interconnects. Its 68-position dual-row layout enables compact board-to-board signal routing with reduced PCB footprint. The right-angle orientation accommodates horizontal mating in enclosures where vertical clearance is limited.

Frequently Asked Questions
What differentiates the right-angle (L) lead style of TSM-134-02-L-DH-A-K-TR from a straight-lead TSM variant?
The right-angle (L) lead style on the TSM-134-02-L-DH-A-K-TR orients the mating interface 90 degrees relative to the PCB surface, allowing board-to-board connections in horizontally stacked enclosures. Straight-lead variants mate perpendicular to the PCB, requiring more vertical clearance. The L variant reduces total stack height by approximately the connector body height, which can be as little as 4 mm depending on the mating pair.
How many total contact positions does the TSM-134-02-L-DH-A-K-TR provide and what is the current capacity per position?
The TSM-134-02-L-DH-A-K-TR has 68 positions across dual rows with a .100" (2.54 mm) pitch. Each position is rated at 3A, giving up to 204A aggregate current capacity when all pins are used for power distribution in parallel across the 68-contact interface.
For a high-density backplane design, what advantages does the dual-row layout of TSM-134-02-L-DH-A-K-TR offer?
The dual-row DH configuration packs 68 positions into roughly half the PCB edge length that a single-row connector would need, saving approximately 34 × 2.54 mm = 86 mm of board edge. This density advantage is critical for backplane designs where multiple connectors share a single PCB edge in a constrained 19-inch rack form factor.
Is the TSM-134-02-L-DH-A-K-TR suitable for automated assembly and what reel configuration does it use?
Yes, the -TR suffix confirms the TSM-134-02-L-DH-A-K-TR is packaged in tape-and-reel format compatible with standard SMT pick-and-place equipment. Reel quantities commonly hold 500 pieces, enabling uninterrupted automated assembly runs and reducing changeover time for volume PCB production compared to tray or cut-tape formats.
