Frequently Asked Questions
What is the pitch and position count of the TST-106-05-L-D connector?
TST-106-05-L-D is a 12-position dual-row shrouded header with a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch, providing 6 positions per row. This standard pitch ensures compatibility with a wide range of ribbon cables, IDC connectors, and mating receptacles commonly used in PCB designs.
How does the shrouded housing of TST-106-05-L-D protect against mis-mating during board assembly?
The shrouded housing of TST-106-05-L-D physically encloses all 12 pins within a keyed plastic surround, preventing incorrect insertion of the mating connector at 2.54 mm pitch. This reduces assembly errors in production environments where connectors are inserted under time pressure or poor lighting conditions.
In which applications is the TST-106-05-L-D dual-row header commonly used?
TST-106-05-L-D is commonly used in embedded development boards, industrial control modules, and test fixtures where a 12-pin interface at 0.100 inch pitch connects ribbon cables carrying up to 12 signal or power lines between PCB assemblies in a compact dual-row footprint.
What mating connectors are compatible with the TST-106-05-L-D, and what current rating should be expected?
TST-106-05-L-D mates with SAMTEC's standard 2.54 mm pitch dual-row receptacles and is compatible with common 12-pin IDC ribbon cable connectors rated at approximately 1 A per pin, making it suitable for digital signal and low-current power distribution applications on PCBs.
