What are the key features of TST-104-02-T-D?

  • 8-position dual-row shrouded design at 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch with polarization key preventing mis-insertion
  • Male square-pin contacts with tin-over-nickel (200 µin) finish providing corrosion resistance and reliable mating
  • Compact body at 0.7 inch length and 0.365 inch breadth fitting tight PCB layouts
  • Compatible with standard IDC ribbon cable assemblies and 2.54 mm pitch socket connectors

What is TST-104-02-T-D used for?

The TST-104-02-T-D is used in embedded system backplanes, industrial I/O modules, and sensor interface boards where an 8-pin shrouded dual-row header at 2.54 mm pitch provides polarized, keyed connections to ribbon cable assemblies. Its through-hole square-pin construction supports wave soldering and hand assembly in prototyping and low-to-mid-volume production. It is also common on development boards and debug header interfaces requiring reliable, foolproof connectivity in test and validation setups.

Frequently Asked Questions

What contact finish does TST-104-02-T-D use and how does it improve mating reliability?

TST-104-02-T-D uses tin (200 µin) plated over nickel on the mating surface, providing a solderable and corrosion-resistant interface for the 8-position, 2.54 mm pitch square-pin contacts across repeated mating cycles.

How does the shrouded design of TST-104-02-T-D prevent connector mis-insertion?

The shroud around TST-104-02-T-D's 8 pins acts as a polarization key, physically preventing incorrect orientation during cable mating at 2.54 mm pitch, reducing wiring errors in field-installed or frequently disconnected board assemblies.

What ribbon cable or mating socket is compatible with TST-104-02-T-D's 8-pin dual-row layout?

Standard 8-conductor IDC ribbon cable assemblies terminated to 2.54 mm pitch female socket connectors mate directly with TST-104-02-T-D's dual-row 2x4 square-pin pattern, supporting data buses and power lines in embedded and industrial equipment.

Is TST-104-02-T-D suitable for wave soldering in volume PCB production?

Yes, TST-104-02-T-D's through-hole square-pin contacts with tin-over-nickel finish are compatible with wave soldering processes, making it cost-effective for mid-to-high-volume production of industrial controllers and embedded computing boards requiring 8-pin shrouded headers.
