Frequently Asked Questions
Which board-to-board designs fit TSW-203-18-G-S best?
TSW-203-18-G-S is a 3-pin TSW terminal strip header connector on a 0.050 inch pitch, so it fits compact mezzanine, controller, and instrumentation PCBs needing many signal contacts.
How should the PCB layout team plan the connector footprint?
Plan for a through-hole SAMTEC connector with 3 pins and a 0.050 inch pitch, keeping mating clearance, routing escape paths, and solder-joint inspection access available.
When is this SAMTEC variant a practical procurement choice?
Choose this variant when the assembly needs 3 pins, high-reliability board contacts, and a 0.050 inch interface rather than a lower-pin-count connector family.
