• Number of Positions: 68
• Number of Rows: 2
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Row Spacing - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Connector Type: Header, Cuttable
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Termination: Solder
• Contact Length - Mating: 0.230" (5.84mm)
• Insulation Height: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Contact Shape: Square
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold at 10.0µin (0.25µm)
• Contact Finish - Post: Tin
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Insulation Material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• Insulation Color: Black
• Product Status: Active
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Substitution differences are limited to optional features (Board Guide, Board Lock, Pick and Place capability) that do not affect core electrical or mechanical compatibility. All substitute parts are manufactured by Samtec Inc. within the TSM series and share the same base product number TSM-134.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the TSM-134-01-L-DV. Selection between the main part and substitutes is determined by application-specific feature requirements:

TSM-134-01-L-DV remains the baseline configuration without optional mechanical features. This part is suitable for applications where standard header functionality is sufficient.

TSM-134-01-L-DV-A includes Board Guide feature, providing enhanced mechanical alignment during mating operations.

TSM-134-01-L-DV-LC-P incorporates Board Lock and Pick and Place features, supporting automated assembly processes and improved mechanical retention.

TSM-134-01-LM-DV-LC includes Board Lock feature for enhanced mechanical retention without pick-and-place capability.

TSM-134-01-LM-DV-LC-P combines Board Lock with Pick and Place features, offering maximum assembly automation support.

All parts maintain Active product status, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL Level 1 rating. Selection should be based on assembly process requirements and mechanical retention specifications rather than electrical performance, as all variants are electrically equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are all substitute parts electrically equivalent to the TSM-134-01-L-DV?

A: Yes. All substitute parts maintain identical electrical specifications including contact material (Phosphor Bronze), contact finish (Gold at 10.0µin mating surface, Tin post), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), and insulation material (Liquid Crystal Polymer). Differences are limited to optional mechanical features that do not affect electrical performance.

Q: What is the difference between the feature designations in the part numbers?

A: The suffix designations indicate optional mechanical features. The "-A" suffix denotes Board Guide. The "-LC" suffix indicates Board Lock. The "-P" suffix indicates Pick and Place capability. These features enhance mechanical alignment, retention, or assembly automation but do not alter electrical compatibility.

Q: Can I substitute TSM-134-01-L-DV with TSM-134-01-LM-DV-LC-P in an existing design?

A: Yes, provided your PCB layout and assembly process can accommodate the additional mechanical features. Both parts maintain identical mating pitch (0.100"), contact length (0.230"), insulation height (0.100"), and all electrical parameters. Verify that your board design supports the Board Lock and Pick and Place features if present.

Q: Are all parts available in the same packaging?

A: Yes. All parts are supplied in Tube packaging as specified in the product data.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. All parts are ROHS3 compliant, UL94 V-0 rated, and carry MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification. All maintain Active product status.

Q: What inventory levels are available for each part?

A: TSM-134-01-L-DV: 940 Pcs; TSM-134-01-L-DV-A: 1023 Pcs; TSM-134-01-L-DV-LC-P: 913 Pcs; TSM-134-01-LM-DV-LC: 877 Pcs; TSM-134-01-LM-DV-LC-P: 1032 Pcs.
