TSM-112-01-LM-SH Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TSM-112-01-LM-SH is a surface mount right-angle rectangular connector header manufactured by Samtec Inc. This 12-position connector operates across the industrial temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and is classified as Active product status. The connector features gold-plated mating contacts with phosphor bronze material and liquid crystal polymer insulation, meeting UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and ROHS3 compliance. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to support procurement flexibility, inventory management, and design continuity when the primary part number becomes unavailable or when specific feature requirements necessitate alternative configurations.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TSM-112-01-LM-SH are identified within the TSM series based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The substitution criteria are strictly limited to the following parameters:

• Connector Type: Header
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Number of Positions: 12
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, Right Angle
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold
• Insulation Material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)

Parts TSM-112-01-L-SH and TSM-112-01-L-SH-LC meet all core electrical and mechanical parameters. The TSM-112-01-L-SH-LC variant includes a Board Lock feature, which represents a functional enhancement rather than a deviation from core specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three part numbers—TSM-112-01-LM-SH, TSM-112-01-L-SH, and TSM-112-01-L-SH-LC—maintain Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts depends on application-specific requirements:

TSM-112-01-LM-SH and TSM-112-01-L-SH are functionally equivalent with no distinguishing features. Either part is suitable for standard board-to-board or cable connection applications requiring 12-position 2.54mm pitch headers.

TSM-112-01-L-SH-LC includes Board Lock functionality, which provides mechanical retention enhancement. This variant is appropriate for applications requiring additional mating security or vibration resistance.

All parts are certified to UL94 V-0 flammability standards and operate across the full industrial temperature range. Moisture sensitivity level MSL 1 indicates unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are TSM-112-01-LM-SH, TSM-112-01-L-SH, and TSM-112-01-L-SH-LC electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical electrical specifications including 12 positions, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, gold-plated mating contacts, and phosphor bronze contact material. They operate across the same temperature range (-55°C to 125°C) and meet identical compliance standards.

Q: What is the difference between TSM-112-01-L-SH and TSM-112-01-L-SH-LC?

A: The TSM-112-01-L-SH-LC includes Board Lock functionality. This feature provides mechanical retention at the mating interface. The TSM-112-01-L-SH does not include this feature. Both parts are otherwise identical in electrical and mechanical specifications.

Q: Can I use TSM-112-01-L-SH-LC as a direct replacement for TSM-112-01-LM-SH?

A: Yes, from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. The Board Lock feature on the TSM-112-01-L-SH-LC is an enhancement that does not prevent compatibility. However, verify that your mating connector design accommodates the Board Lock mechanism if present.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All three parts—TSM-112-01-LM-SH, TSM-112-01-L-SH, and TSM-112-01-L-SH-LC—are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these connectors?

A: All three parts have Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1, which indicates unlimited shelf life. No special moisture control measures are required during storage or handling.

Q: Do these connectors require any special handling or storage conditions?

A: No. With MSL 1 rating, these connectors do not require controlled humidity storage or baking procedures prior to assembly.
