Key Features
- 36-position dual-row 0.100" pitch SMT shrouded header for high-signal-count board-to-cable connectivity on compact PCBs
- Polarized shroud housing prevents 180-degree mismating, protecting signal and power pins during harness installation and field service
- Tape and reel packaging optimized for automated SMT placement at production volumes, reducing per-unit assembly cost
Applications
The TSM-136-05-S-SH-P-TR is suited for industrial PLC backplanes, embedded computing carrier boards, and test-and-measurement equipment requiring 36-pin SMT shrouded header interfaces. Its dual-row layout on a standard 0.100 inch pitch allows direct mating with IDC ribbon cables and box-header assemblies, making it a practical choice for data acquisition systems, I/O expansion boards, and multi-channel sensor interfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many signals can the TSM-136-05-S-SH-P-TR route in a single connector footprint, and what pitch are they arranged on?
The TSM-136-05-S-SH-P-TR provides 36 positions arranged in dual rows on a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch, giving 18 pins per row. This supports up to 36 independent signal lines in a footprint approximately 44.5 mm long and 5.08 mm wide between row centers, making it practical for parallel data bus headers, multi-channel analog I/O, or mixed power-and-signal interfaces on a single connector.
For a PLC I/O expansion card requiring 36 pins, why might a designer choose the TSM-136-05-S-SH-P-TR over separate smaller connectors?
Consolidating 36 I/O signals into a single TSM-136-05-S-SH-P-TR reduces the PCB real estate consumed by connector keep-out zones compared to, for example, three separate 12-pin headers each requiring individual shrouds and latch features. A single 36-position connector also simplifies field wiring to one ribbon cable assembly, cutting harness cost by approximately 40% versus three separate 12-pin cable assemblies and reducing the probability of partially connected headers.
Which cable assembly standards are mechanically compatible with the TSM-136-05-S-SH-P-TR for rapid system integration?
The TSM-136-05-S-SH-P-TR accepts mating IDC box-header plug assemblies conforming to the 0.100 inch dual-row standard (IEC 60603-13 compatible profiles), including 36-conductor flat ribbon cables terminated with standard 2×18 IDC housings. Cable current ratings typically range from 1 A to 3 A per contact at 300 V for 28 AWG to 24 AWG wire, sufficient for digital logic signals, low-power analog inputs, and 5 V or 3.3 V power distribution rails.
