What are the key features of ESQT-117-03-G-Q-310?
- 34-position female socket strip at 2.00 mm pitch with FleXYZ flexible design for PCB height and angle accommodation
- Gold (20 µin) over nickel (50 µin) contact finish on phosphor bronze contacts provides corrosion resistance and reliable mating
- Elevated socket strip design accommodates board height variations and allows flexible board-to-board mating angles
- RoHS-compliant Pb-free construction supports lead-free assembly for global regulatory compliance
What is ESQT-117-03-G-Q-310 used for?
The ESQT-117-03-G-Q-310 is designed for board-to-board applications where PCB height offsets or angular misalignment between mating boards must be accommodated without rigid standoff constraints. Its FleXYZ flexible elevated socket design suits embedded computing stacks, sensor arrays, and prototyping systems where mechanical alignment cannot be guaranteed to sub-millimeter precision. Industrial applications that experience vibration or thermal cycling also benefit from the flexible interconnect compliance reducing mechanical stress at the solder joints.

Frequently Asked Questions
What contact pitch and position count does the ESQT-117-03-G-Q-310 offer, and what does FleXYZ mean for the design?
The ESQT-117-03-G-Q-310 is a 34-position female socket strip at 2.00 mm pitch. The FleXYZ designation refers to SAMTEC's flexible elevated socket strip design that accommodates X, Y, and Z-axis tolerance variations between mating PCBs, making it suitable for board stacking where perfect planar alignment cannot be guaranteed.
What contact plating is used in the ESQT-117-03-G-Q-310 and how does it affect long-term connection reliability?
The ESQT-117-03-G-Q-310 uses gold (20 µin minimum) over nickel (50 µin minimum) plating on phosphor bronze contacts. Gold plating resists oxidation and maintains low contact resistance over many mating cycles, while the nickel barrier layer prevents gold diffusion into the base metal, ensuring reliable signal integrity in long-life applications.
When should a designer choose the ESQT-117-03-G-Q-310 over a rigid socket strip for board stacking?
The ESQT-117-03-G-Q-310 is preferred over rigid socket strips when mating PCBs may be offset or tilted due to manufacturing tolerances, thermal expansion, or vibration. The FleXYZ flexible elevated design absorbs up to several degrees of angular misalignment and height variation, reducing mechanical stress at 34 contact solder joints where a rigid connector would crack solder joints or damage the PCB.
What lead time and RoHS status should procurement teams expect for the ESQT-117-03-G-Q-310?
SAMTEC lists a factory lead time of approximately 3 weeks for the ESQT-117-03-G-Q-310, which is longer than standard in-stock connectors, so production schedules should include this lead time buffer. The part is RoHS compliant with a Pb-free rating, confirming suitability for lead-free assembly processes in EU and global markets.
