Frequently Asked Questions
Why would a designer choose TSM-135-01-TM-DH-A-K-TR over a through-hole equivalent for a high-density PCB layout?
The TSM-135-01-TM-DH-A-K-TR uses SMT termination on a 2.54 mm (.100") pitch, eliminating the need for drilled vias and freeing the inner layers for routing. Its 70-position dual-row footprint fits more signals into a given board area than most through-hole alternatives, which typically occupy 2-3x more vertical height as well.
How does the tape-and-reel packaging of TSM-135-01-TM-DH-A-K-TR benefit high-volume production scheduling?
The -TR suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging, with connectors loaded at standard 2000 per reel for continuous feeder operation in SMT assembly lines. This eliminates manual loading delays and reduces per-connector handling time from minutes to milliseconds, improving throughput when placing 70-pin SMT connectors across hundreds of boards per shift.
What mating connector series is compatible with TSM-135-01-TM-DH-A-K-TR and what stack height range do they support?
TSM-135-01-TM-DH-A-K-TR is designed to mate with SAMTEC SSQ, SFM, and SFS series 0.100" pitch socket strips, which provide mated stack heights typically between 8.5 mm and 20 mm. The 70-position dual-row mating interface provides 70 signal channels, accommodating parallel bus or high I/O count module designs.
