Frequently Asked Questions
How many contact positions does TSM-134-02-SS-DH-A-K-TR provide, and how are they arranged?
The TSM-134-02-SS-DH-A-K-TR provides 68 contact positions in a dual-row arrangement on a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch, delivering high interconnect density in a compact footprint suitable for industrial control boards and embedded computing modules.
What role do the surface-mount standoffs (SS) play in the mechanical design of TSM-134-02-SS-DH-A-K-TR?
Surface-mount standoffs anchor the 68-pin connector body to the PCB surface, providing mechanical support that reduces stress on solder joints during vibration and thermal cycling. This feature is especially valuable in industrial environments with operating temperature swings exceeding 50°C and mechanical shock exposure.
Why specify gold-plated (-K) contacts on TSM-134-02-SS-DH-A-K-TR for a long-lifecycle equipment design?
Gold plating maintains stable contact resistance below 20 mΩ over more than 100 mating cycles and resists oxidation in humid environments, making the -K variant preferable to tin-plated alternatives for modular industrial equipment expected to undergo frequent module swaps over a 10-year service life.
What reel quantity and packaging format should buyers plan for when ordering TSM-134-02-SS-DH-A-K-TR in production volumes?
The -TR suffix designates EIA-481 tape-and-reel packaging, typically supplied in reels of 500 pieces for 68-pin connectors. Production planners should account for SAMTEC's standard factory lead time and order buffer stock when scheduling builds with more than 1,000 units per quarter to avoid line stoppages.
