Key Features
- 70 total contacts (35 positions, dual-row) on 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch in a single-sided SMT footprint, maximizing I/O density without through-hole drilling
- Shrouded housing (SH suffix) provides polarity keying and mechanical protection, preventing mis-insertion during cable or mating connector assembly
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging supports automated pick-and-place assembly for high-volume SMT production with standard 0.100 inch grid reel formats
Applications
The TSM-135-05-L-SH-P-TR is suited for industrial control boards, embedded computing backplanes, and test equipment that require a high-density 70-pin shrouded interface on a standard 0.100 inch grid. Its surface-mount vertical footprint conserves PCB real estate compared to through-hole alternatives, and the tape-and-reel packaging enables direct integration into automated SMT assembly lines. The shrouded design adds mechanical polarization, making it a reliable choice for field-serviceable panel wiring or ribbon-cable termination in rack-mount systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many total electrical contacts does the TSM-135-05-L-SH-P-TR provide, and what is the row arrangement?
The TSM-135-05-L-SH-P-TR is a 35-position dual-row connector, providing 70 total contacts arranged in 2 rows of 35 pins each on a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch. This dual-row layout on a 0.100 inch grid allows a 70-pin interface within approximately 88.9 mm of row length, which is comparable to many standard IDC ribbon-cable footprints.
What is the benefit of the shroud (SH) on the TSM-135-05-L-SH-P-TR versus a non-shrouded pin header in a cable-terminated wiring harness?
The shroud physically encloses all 70 pins, providing a polarization key that prevents the mating connector from being inserted rotated 180 degrees, which would cause incorrect pin-to-signal assignment. In wiring harness or ribbon-cable assemblies where technicians may disconnect and reconnect the interface repeatedly, the shroud on the TSM-135-05-L-SH-P-TR significantly reduces mis-wiring errors compared to an unshrouded 0.100 inch pin header.
Can the TSM-135-05-L-SH-P-TR be used in an automated SMT reflow process, and what reel quantity is typically supplied?
Yes, the TR (tape-and-reel) suffix confirms the TSM-135-05-L-SH-P-TR is packaged for automated pick-and-place and reflow soldering on standard SMT lines with a peak temperature up to 260°C. Samtec typically supplies tape-and-reel connectors in quantities of 500 or 1000 pieces per reel depending on component size, making this part suitable for medium to high-volume production runs without manual loading.
