Key Features
- 84 positions in a dual-row 2.54mm pitch for extensive signal and power routing in a single SMT connector
- Tail (T) termination style extending solder tails for increased mechanical retention during and after reflow
- Tape-and-reel packaging enabling seamless automated pick-and-place assembly in volume production
Applications
The TSM-142-02-T-DV-P-TR serves as a primary interconnect on FPGA evaluation boards, industrial I/O expander cards, and backplane systems where 84 mixed-signal or power lines must be reliably terminated using the familiar 2.54mm pitch. Its tail-mount construction provides improved mechanical pull-out strength compared to standard SMT termination, which is valuable in connectors exposed to vibration or repeated cable flexing. Tape-and-reel delivery supports automated placement in volume manufacturing environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What distinguishes the tail (T) termination on the TSM-142-02-T-DV-P-TR from a standard SMT pad termination?
The tail termination extends solder tails below the PCB surface or through solder relief features on the board, increasing the solder joint area and providing significantly higher pull-out force than a standard SMT pad; for an 84-pin connector this matters because the cumulative weight and mechanical stress of cables or mating connectors can stress SMT joints over time, and the tail style mitigates this in applications subject to vibration or repeated mating cycles.
For a design needing 84 GPIO lines on a microcontroller breakout board, how does the TSM-142-02-T-DV-P-TR simplify prototyping?
Consolidating 84 GPIO lines into a single dual-row 2.54mm connector allows prototypers to use standard dupont or ribbon cables to connect to the microcontroller breakout without custom cabling; the 2.54mm pitch is universally compatible with breadboard jumpers, logic analyzers, and off-the-shelf ribbon cable assemblies, cutting prototype wiring time from hours to minutes.
How does the position count of TSM-142-02-T-DV-P-TR relate to its TSM-14x series siblings for system design flexibility?
Within the TSM-14x series, position counts step in increments of 2 per row, so the TSM-142-02-T-DV-P-TR at 84 positions sits between the TSM-141 at 82 positions and the TSM-143 at 86 positions; all share the same 2.54mm dual-row pitch and SMT family, giving system designers a fine-grained selection of connector sizes with identical footprint rules and mechanical envelopes.
What current and voltage ratings should designers verify before using the TSM-142-02-T-DV-P-TR for power distribution pins?
SAMTEC TSM-series connectors on a 2.54mm pitch typically support at least 1A per contact at rated temperature and up to 250V AC (or 150V DC depending on spacing), so designers mixing signal and power on the same 84-pin connector should verify the current load per pin against the datasheet rating and derate appropriately for adjacent high-current pins to avoid thermal hotspots in the connector housing.
