What are the key features of TST-130-02-S-D?

  • 60-position dual-row shrouded header at 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch for wide-bus board-to-wire interconnect
  • Gold (30 microinch) over nickel contact finish on mating surfaces provides corrosion resistance and low contact resistance over thousands of mating cycles
  • Polarized shroud on a 3.3 inch body prevents incorrect cable orientation and protects 60 square-pin contacts during assembly

What is TST-130-02-S-D used for?

The TST-130-02-S-D is well suited for industrial backplane connections, multi-channel data acquisition systems, and development boards where 60 signals must be routed through a single keyed, shrouded 0.100 inch pitch header. Its gold-plated contacts and dual-row layout support high-reliability wire-to-board harnesses in test-and-measurement and automation equipment. Engineers select this connector for applications where large ribbon-cable assemblies must mate reliably to a PCB in polarized fashion across frequent insertion cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions

What contact finish does TST-130-02-S-D use, and how does that affect connector lifespan in high-mating-cycle applications?

The TST-130-02-S-D uses gold (30 microinch) over nickel on the mating contact surfaces and tin-over-nickel on the termination side. The 30 microinch gold plating provides excellent corrosion resistance and maintains contact resistance below 20 milliohms across thousands of mating cycles, making this 60-position shrouded header suitable for test fixtures and instrumentation connectors that are mated and unmated frequently.

For a 60-circuit industrial harness design, how does the shroud on TST-130-02-S-D reduce field assembly errors?

The polarized shroud physically prevents a 60-circuit IDC ribbon cable assembly from being inserted upside-down or offset by one row, eliminating the risk of cross-wiring 60 signals during field installation. On a 3.3 inch long connector body with dual-row square pins at 0.100 inch pitch, this keying feature is especially valuable in industrial control panels where technicians replace cables under time pressure without detailed reference to wiring diagrams.

How does the TST-130-02-S-D body length of 3.3 inches influence PCB routing and connector placement decisions?

The 3.3 inch (approximately 84 mm) body length of the TST-130-02-S-D means the connector occupies a substantial portion of a standard PCB edge, and PCB designers must reserve that length for the connector keep-out zone. For 60-circuit bus interfaces, this length is unavoidable at 0.100 inch pitch, but the dual-row layout keeps the connector depth to 0.365 inch, minimizing board-area impact perpendicular to the connector's long axis.
