What are the key features of TSM-135-02-SM-DH-A-P-TR?

  • 70-position single-row 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch surface-mount terminal strip offering broad mating connector compatibility
  • Dual-height (DH) design provides two selectable board separation heights for flexible PCB stack configurations
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enables seamless integration with automated pick-and-place equipment for high-volume SMT production
  • -SM suffix indicates surface-mount contact tail configuration for consistent reflow soldering with standard lead-free profiles up to 260°C

What is TSM-135-02-SM-DH-A-P-TR used for?

The TSM-135-02-SM-DH-A-P-TR is used in board-to-board stacking applications including embedded SBCs, industrial I/O expansion modules, and test equipment daughtercards requiring 70 reliable positions at the 2.54 mm pitch. Its dual-height design allows flexible gap clearances between stacked boards, accommodating components of varying heights such as large electrolytic capacitors or shielding cans placed between boards. The tape-and-reel packaging format supports efficient automated assembly in medium-to-high volume PCB manufacturing environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What differentiates the TSM-135-02-SM-DH-A-P-TR from similar TSM-135 variants in board-to-board applications?

The TSM-135-02-SM-DH-A-P-TR includes the -SM suffix indicating a surface-mount contact tail, the -DH dual-height design for flexible stack separation, and -TR tape-and-reel packaging. These attributes distinguish it from through-hole or single-height variants in the TSM-135 family, making it specifically suited for automated SMT board-to-board stacking at 70 positions and 2.54 mm pitch.

What board stack clearance does the dual-height design of TSM-135-02-SM-DH-A-P-TR provide?

The dual-height (DH) designation on the TSM-135-02-SM-DH-A-P-TR means the connector is available in two discrete stack heights within the SAMTEC TSM family, typically providing board separations in the range of 8 mm to 11 mm. This allows designers to select the appropriate height to clear components up to 8.5 mm tall placed between the two 70-position mated PCBs.

Which production environments benefit most from the -TR tape-and-reel packaging of TSM-135-02-SM-DH-A-P-TR?

The tape-and-reel packaging of TSM-135-02-SM-DH-A-P-TR is ideal for SMT production lines using standard EIA-481 carrier tape widths with automated pick-and-place placement heads. It eliminates the manual feeder setup required for cut-tape or tube packaging, reducing placement cycle time and connector damage rates when assembling hundreds to thousands of 70-position board-to-board connector PCBs per shift.

In what operating temperature range can the TSM-135-02-SM-DH-A-P-TR be reliably used?

SAMTEC TSM series connectors including the TSM-135-02-SM-DH-A-P-TR are rated for operation across a -55°C to +125°C temperature range. This wide thermal range makes the 70-position 2.54 mm pitch connector suitable for industrial automation equipment, outdoor embedded systems, and ruggedized military-grade board-to-board stacking applications subject to extreme temperature cycling.
