Key Features
- 24-way dual-row through-hole vertical configuration at 5.08 mm (0.200-inch) pitch for robust board-level interconnects
- Gold-over-nickel contact finish on both mating and termination surfaces ensures low contact resistance and corrosion resistance
- Through-hole termination provides superior mechanical retention compared to SMD alternatives in high-vibration environments
- Vertical (straight) orientation simplifies PCB routing by aligning mating connectors perpendicular to the board surface
- RoHS-compliant lead-free construction meeting modern environmental standards for global market distribution
Applications
The TSW-212-13-G-D is ideal for power distribution headers, module-to-backplane interconnects, and prototype development boards requiring sturdy through-hole mechanical retention. Its 24-way dual-row layout suits multi-channel data acquisition boards, industrial I/O expansion cards, and embedded computing modules where reliable long-term connectivity is required. The gold-plated contacts make it suitable for low-level signal applications where contact resistance must remain stable over thousands of mating cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pitch and contact count does the TSW-212-13-G-D provide, and how is it arranged?
The TSW-212-13-G-D provides 24 contacts in a dual-row arrangement at 5.08 mm (0.200-inch) pitch. Each row contains 12 contacts spaced 5.08 mm apart, making this connector well suited for power distribution and multi-signal interfaces in industrial controllers, test fixtures, and backplane assemblies where 0.200-inch pitch headers are the standard.
Why choose gold-over-nickel contact finish for the TSW-212-13-G-D in signal applications?
Gold-over-nickel plating on both the mating contact surface and the through-hole termination pins provides several benefits. Gold's low bulk resistivity and excellent corrosion resistance maintain contact impedance below 10 mΩ even after thousands of mating cycles. The nickel barrier prevents gold diffusion into the base material, preserving contact finish integrity over the connector's service life in humid or chemically active environments.
How does through-hole mounting benefit the TSW-212-13-G-D in high-vibration environments?
Through-hole mounting creates solder joints that encapsulate the pin barrel inside the PCB via hole, producing mechanical anchoring that is significantly stronger than SMD pads. For a 24-way connector subject to cable pull forces or vibration in industrial machinery, the through-hole joints resist lateral and vertical forces that would crack SMD solder joints. This makes THT mounting the preferred choice for panel-mount or rear-access connectors in industrial and mil-spec equipment.
What mating connector families are compatible with SAMTEC TSW-212-13-G-D at 5.08 mm pitch?
The TSW-212-13-G-D mates with SAMTEC SSW, SFM, and TMS series female connectors at 0.200-inch (5.08 mm) pitch. Standard crimp housing assemblies with 18 to 24 AWG wire terminations at 5.08 mm pitch from other manufacturers are also compatible. Designers choosing plug-in terminal blocks or screw-cage alternatives at 5.08 mm pitch can use the TSW-212-13-G-D as the PCB-side header for easy field-wiring of 24 individual signals or power rails.
