What are the key features of TSM-138-02-L-DV-P-TR?
- 76-position dual-row 0.100-inch pitch layout provides exceptionally high connection density in a single SMT terminal strip for complex backplane and daughter-card designs
- Surface mount solder tail termination enables automated reflow soldering with standard SMT pick-and-place equipment for efficient high-volume PCB production
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging ensures consistent component orientation for automated assembly and reduces setup time in production environments
What is TSM-138-02-L-DV-P-TR used for?
The TSM-138-02-L-DV-P-TR is used in high-density backplane-to-daughter-card interconnects, multi-bus signal routing boards, and instrumentation motherboards where 76 signal connections are needed in a single compact 0.100-inch pitch SMT connector. Its dual-row surface mount configuration enables high-speed digital buses, mixed signal, and power distribution connections in computing modules, test equipment, and embedded control systems. Engineers specify it in FPGA development boards, protocol analyzer cards, and modular industrial I/O systems that require reliable high pin-count connectivity within the space constraints of standard 0.100-inch grid PCB layouts.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the TSM-138-02-L-DV-P-TR provide, and how are they arranged?
The TSM-138-02-L-DV-P-TR provides 76 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration on a 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch. This dual-row layout places 38 contacts per row, allowing the connector to support high pin-count interfaces such as 32-bit data buses, multiple SPI or I2C channels, and mixed analog and digital signals within a single footprint that occupies approximately 96 mm x 5 mm on a standard PCB.
What soldering process is compatible with the TSM-138-02-L-DV-P-TR surface mount terminal strip?
The TSM-138-02-L-DV-P-TR is designed for surface mount reflow soldering compatible with standard SAC305 lead-free solder paste at peak temperatures of 260°C. The SMT solder tail termination allows the 76-position connector to be placed and reflowed alongside other SMD components in a single pass, eliminating the hand-soldering step required for through-hole alternatives and reducing assembly cost per board in high-volume production runs of thousands of units.
In which high-density board applications does the TSM-138-02-L-DV-P-TR offer a layout advantage over multiple smaller connectors?
Using a single TSM-138-02-L-DV-P-TR 76-position connector instead of multiple smaller 2x10 or 2x20 connectors reduces the number of board-edge interruptions on high-density PCBs such as FPGA carrier cards and embedded computing modules. A single 76-pin connector on a 0.100-inch grid occupies approximately 96 mm of board length, compared to four separate 2x10 connectors that collectively require 4 mounting pads and 4 keep-out zones adding 8 mm to 12 mm of overhead, while also reducing the number of mating steps required during cable or daughter card installation.
How does tape-and-reel packaging of the TSM-138-02-L-DV-P-TR benefit automated SMT assembly lines?
The TR suffix tape-and-reel packaging of the TSM-138-02-L-DV-P-TR maintains consistent component polarity and orientation for automated pick-and-place machines, ensuring the 76-position dual-row connector is placed accurately on each PCB without manual verification. Reel-fed delivery supports continuous production at rates of several hundred boards per hour, and the standardized 0.100-inch pitch footprint aligns with feeder widths available on most SMT assembly platforms, minimizing changeover time when transitioning between board variants.
