What are the key features of TST-104-04-S-D?

  • 8-position dual-row configuration on 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch for high-density connectivity
  • Integrated polarizing shroud prevents mismating and ensures correct connector orientation
  • Through-hole solder termination provides robust mechanical retention on PCB
  • Compatible with standard 0.100 inch pitch mating receptacles and cable assemblies
  • Shrouded housing protects pins from damage during handling and assembly

What is TST-104-04-S-D used for?

The TST-104-04-S-D is widely used for board-to-board and board-to-cable interconnections in industrial control panels, test and measurement equipment, and embedded system prototyping boards where a reliable 8-position 0.100 inch pitch interface is required. Its dual-row shrouded design is commonly adopted in power distribution modules, motor driver boards, and sensor interface circuits where polarized mating prevents assembly errors. The connector is also popular in development kits, evaluation boards, and scientific instruments that demand repeatable, tool-free mating connections.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the contact pitch and row configuration of the TST-104-04-S-D connector?

The TST-104-04-S-D features a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) contact pitch in a dual-row arrangement providing 8 total positions (4 positions per row), making it a standard footprint compatible with a wide range of 0.100 inch pitch mating receptacles and IDC cable connectors.

How does the shroud on TST-104-04-S-D prevent assembly errors on a PCB?

The integrated polarizing shroud surrounds all 8 pins and includes a keying feature that physically blocks misaligned or reversed mating of the receptacle, reducing the risk of incorrect connections in production environments and ensuring consistent 2-row alignment every time.

What current and voltage ratings does a typical SAMTEC TST-series shrouded header support?

SAMTEC TST-series shrouded headers are typically rated for up to 3 A per contact and 250 V AC/DC working voltage, making them suitable for power and signal distribution applications in industrial and embedded systems operating within standard PCB assembly environments.

In which PCB assembly scenarios is TST-104-04-S-D preferred over surface-mount connectors?

The through-hole termination of TST-104-04-S-D provides superior mechanical strength compared to surface-mount alternatives, making it the preferred choice in applications subject to repeated mating cycles, vibration, or cable pull forces, such as robotics controllers, motor drive boards, and field-replaceable module interfaces.
