Key Features
- 34-position dual-row SMT terminal strip at 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch for high signal-count surface-mount board-to-cable interconnection
- Shielded housing (SH suffix) providing 15 to 25 dB EMI attenuation protecting sensitive signals in 34-position mixed-signal PCB environments
- Press-fit retention tabs (P suffix) mechanically stabilizing the connector during 260°C peak reflow to prevent pad misalignment and solder bridges
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging with surface-mount tail length (STL) contacts optimized for automated SMT production at high-volume assembly rates
Applications
The TSM-134-05-STL-SH-P-TR is designed for high-density SMT terminal strip connections in industrial automation controllers, embedded single-board computers, and backplane signal distribution boards where 34 signals must be reliably routed through a single surface-mount connector. Its shielded housing and press-fit tabs make it particularly suitable for mixed-signal designs in motor control systems, PLC expansion modules, and data acquisition hardware that require both EMI protection and mechanical robustness during automated reflow assembly. The tape-and-reel format enables seamless integration into modern SMT production lines for telecommunications, medical electronics, and industrial IoT platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 34-position count of TSM-134-05-STL-SH-P-TR affect PCB routing complexity compared to multiple smaller connectors?
Consolidating 34 signals into a single TSM-134-05-STL-SH-P-TR connector at 0.100" pitch reduces the PCB area needed for connectors compared to using two 17-position or three smaller SMT headers, and eliminates the routing overhead of multiple connector footprints spaced across the board edge. At 2.54 mm pitch, a 34-position dual-row layout spans approximately 43 mm of board edge length, which is compact enough for standard 100 mm wide embedded computing boards while accommodating all 34 signals in a single cable harness termination point.
What reflow soldering considerations apply when assembling TSM-134-05-STL-SH-P-TR on a mixed SMT board?
The TSM-134-05-STL-SH-P-TR with its STL (surface mount tail length) contacts and P-suffix press-fit tabs is designed to withstand standard lead-free reflow profiles with peak temperatures of 260°C for up to 30 seconds, per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 requirements. The press-fit tabs maintain ±0.1 mm positional accuracy across all 34 positions during the reflow cycle, which is critical at 0.100" pitch where thermal expansion of the PCB substrate could otherwise shift the connector by up to 0.2 mm and compromise pad alignment.
For an industrial motor drive control board, how does the shielded housing of TSM-134-05-STL-SH-P-TR reduce interference from PWM switching?
In motor drive applications where PWM switching frequencies of 4 kHz to 20 kHz generate strong harmonic emissions up to 500 MHz, the SH-suffix shielded housing of the TSM-134-05-STL-SH-P-TR provides a Faraday cage around the 34-position contact array that attenuates conducted and radiated interference by 15 to 25 dB. This shielding prevents PWM-generated noise from coupling into the motor encoder feedback signals and current sense inputs routed through the same 34-position connector, maintaining measurement accuracy within ±1 LSB at 12-bit ADC resolution.
When is TSM-134-05-STL-SH-P-TR a more cost-effective solution than board-to-board connectors for backplane signal distribution?
The TSM-134-05-STL-SH-P-TR terminal strip is more cost-effective than dedicated board-to-board mezzanine connectors when the system design uses a cable harness to route 34 signals between PCBs at distances greater than 50 mm, where rigid board-to-board stacking connectors would require a fixed inter-board spacing that limits mechanical flexibility. At standard 0.100" pitch pricing, the TSM-134 series typically costs 30 to 60% less per position than equivalent-count board-to-board mezzanine connectors, making it the preferred choice in cost-sensitive industrial controller platforms with medium signal counts.
