Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the TSM-136-03-TL-DH-A-K-TR provide and at what pitch?
The TSM-136-03-TL-DH-A-K-TR provides 72 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration at 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch. This standard pitch accommodates a broad range of mating connectors and enables straightforward PCB layout with conventional 100-mil grid spacing.
For a backplane design with over 60 signal lines, why choose the TSM-136-03-TL-DH-A-K-TR?
With 72 contacts at 0.100 inch pitch in a single SMT footprint, the TSM-136-03-TL-DH-A-K-TR eliminates the need for multiple smaller connectors on a dense backplane. The through-hole tail design also adds mechanical retention that resists the 72-position mating and unmating forces typical of maintenance-heavy environments.
Is the TSM-136-03-TL-DH-A-K-TR RoHS compliant and suitable for automated assembly?
Yes, the TSM-136-03-TL-DH-A-K-TR carries RoHS-compliant construction making it compatible with lead-free solder processes. Its SMT body with 0.100 inch pitch contacts can be placed by standard pick-and-place equipment, and the through-hole tails are processed in a subsequent wave or selective solder step for 72-pin mechanical anchoring.
