Key Features
- 32-position dual-row shrouded PCB header at 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch with horizontal (right-angle) pin orientation for low-profile cable routing
- 30 micro-inch gold over nickel contact plating delivers low and stable contact resistance across hundreds of mating cycles
- Polarized shroud prevents mis-mating of mating connectors across all 32 pins, improving field reliability in industrial and embedded applications
Applications
The TST-116-02-H-D is designed for industrial control boards, embedded computing systems, and test-and-measurement platforms requiring a compact 32-position right-angle shrouded header for ribbon cable or harness interfaces. Its horizontal pin orientation allows cable exits parallel to the PCB plane, enabling low-profile enclosure designs and simplified wire routing in space-constrained assemblies.

Frequently Asked Questions
What orientation do the pins take in the TST-116-02-H-D and why does it matter for enclosure design?
The H suffix specifies a horizontal (right-angle) pin orientation, meaning the 32 pins exit the connector at 90 degrees relative to the PCB surface. This allows the mating cable to route parallel to the board, reducing the required vertical clearance in enclosures and supporting low-profile panel-mount designs in industrial controllers and communication equipment.
What contact plating specification does TST-116-02-H-D use and what reliability benefit does it provide?
The TST-116-02-H-D uses 30 micro-inches of gold over a nickel underplate on all 32 male square-pin contacts. Gold plating at this thickness provides low and stable contact resistance, typically below 20 milliohms, and resists oxidation over hundreds of mating cycles, making the connector reliable in maintenance environments where connectors are frequently disconnected.
For a 32-channel analog acquisition board, how does TST-116-02-H-D simplify wiring compared to individual pin headers?
The shrouded dual-row housing of the TST-116-02-H-D consolidates all 32 connections into a single polarized connector, which can be mated in one motion with a standard 32-pin IDC ribbon cable assembly. This eliminates individual wire routing errors, reduces assembly time, and the keyed shroud prevents miswiring that could damage analog front-end circuitry during channel-by-channel harness installation.
