Key Features
- 34-position dual-row layout at 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch providing high contact density in a standard SMT-compatible terminal strip form factor
- Shrouded (SH) housing guides mating connector alignment and protects contacts from mechanical damage during board handling and field service
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enables automated pick-and-place assembly, reducing placement cycle time in high-volume SMT production
Applications
The TSM-134-05-SS-SH-P-TR serves as a reliable board-to-board or board-to-wire interface in industrial automation controllers, embedded computing modules, and test fixture interconnect systems requiring 34 signal positions at the industry-standard 0.100 inch pitch. Its surface mount termination and shrouded dual-row body make it suitable for backplane interface cards and daughter board expansion connectors that must withstand repeated mating cycles. The tape-and-reel format ensures compatibility with modern SMT pick-and-place machines used in high-throughput electronics manufacturing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What contact pitch and row count does the TSM-134-05-SS-SH-P-TR use, and how does this influence PCB routing?
The TSM-134-05-SS-SH-P-TR uses a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch in a dual-row, 34-position configuration, totaling 68 contacts across both rows. The 2.54 mm pitch is the industry-standard through-hole and SMT spacing, so existing 0.100 inch PCB grid rules apply directly, simplifying footprint creation and trace routing without requiring specialized fine-pitch design rules.
How does the shrouded housing of the TSM-134-05-SS-SH-P-TR protect connector integrity during repeated mating?
The shroud (SH designation) encircles all 34 positions on each row, providing a rigid plastic guide that centers the mating connector before contact engagement. This prevents bent pins during blind-mate operations and protects the SMT solder joints from side-load forces. In field-serviceable equipment where boards are swapped frequently, the shroud can extend mean-time-between-failure by eliminating accidental pin damage from misaligned insertion.
Can TSM-134-05-SS-SH-P-TR be used in industrial temperature environments, and what mounting style does it use?
The TSM-134-05-SS-SH-P-TR uses surface mount (SM) termination, allowing it to be reflowed onto a PCB using standard SAC305 or lead-free solder paste processes at reflow temperatures up to 260°C peak, which is within normal SMT profile limits. SAMTEC TSM-series connectors are typically rated for industrial operating temperature ranges of -55°C to +125°C, making them appropriate for harsh environment industrial controllers, motor drive boards, and outdoor communication equipment.
When is TSM-134-05-SS-SH-P-TR preferred over a through-hole dual-row header for the same 34-position interface?
TSM-134-05-SS-SH-P-TR is preferred when the PCB design is fully SMT and no wave-solder or manual through-hole insertion step is desired, since surface mount placement eliminates the need for a separate soldering pass. In high-density boards where component placement on both sides is required, the shallow SMT body profile of the TSM series also leaves more clearance than tall through-hole headers, supporting double-sided assembly with 34 or more signal connections per connector footprint.
