Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—TSM-150-01-L-DV, TSM-150-01-L-DV-P, and TSM-150-01-L-DV-A—are Active status products manufactured by Samtec Inc. and maintain full ROHS3 compliance with UL94 V-0 flammability certification. They are electrically and mechanically interchangeable for applications requiring a 100-position, 2-row surface mount header connector with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch.

Selection between these parts depends on assembly process requirements:

• TSM-150-01-L-DV: Standard configuration for general board-to-board or cable interconnection applications.
• TSM-150-01-L-DV-P: Includes Pick and Place feature for automated assembly processes requiring enhanced handling characteristics.
• TSM-150-01-L-DV-A: Includes Board Guide feature for applications requiring mechanical alignment assistance during mating operations.

All parts share identical electrical performance, environmental ratings, and contact specifications. Inventory availability varies across the three options.
