What are the key features of TSM-135-03-TM-SH-A?

  • 35-position dual-row layout at .100" (2.54 mm) pitch for broad compatibility with standard mating headers and ribbon cable assemblies
  • Tined midrange (TM) solder lead style providing added mechanical strength and solder joint reliability in vibration-prone environments
  • Single-row horizontal mating enabling low-profile board-to-board connections in stacked PCB assemblies with restricted vertical clearance

What is TSM-135-03-TM-SH-A used for?

The TSM-135-03-TM-SH-A is designed for board-to-board signal interconnect in industrial automation, embedded computing, and telecommunications equipment. Its 35-position dual-row surface mount design supports dense signal distribution across stacked PCBs with a standard .100" pitch footprint. The tined midrange lead style enhances solder joint robustness, making it suitable for applications subject to mechanical vibration or thermal cycling.

Frequently Asked Questions

What distinguishes the TM (tined midrange) lead style of TSM-135-03-TM-SH-A from standard lead styles?

The TM (tined midrange) lead style features a solder tail of intermediate length, longer than short-form leads but shorter than long tails, providing a balance between PCB footprint size and solder joint strength. This configuration improves mechanical retention during thermal cycling from -40°C to 85°C and offers increased resistance to solder joint cracking under vibration loads compared to short-lead variants.

For a dual-board industrial controller, how many signal lines can TSM-135-03-TM-SH-A carry per connector?

The TSM-135-03-TM-SH-A provides 35 positions in a dual-row arrangement, carrying up to 35 independent signal or power lines per connector. At a .100" (2.54 mm) pitch, each contact is rated for signal or low-power connections, and pairing two connectors allows a designer to route up to 70 signals between boards in a standard industrial controller chassis.

Which surface mount assembly process considerations apply when soldering TSM-135-03-TM-SH-A?

The TSM-135-03-TM-SH-A is designed for SMT reflow assembly using standard solder paste applied to PCB pads matching the .100" pitch footprint. Reflow profiles with a peak temperature of 245°C to 260°C are compatible with the connector's housing material. The tined midrange leads support good solder paste volume retention, reducing the risk of insufficient solder joints during automated assembly.
