What are the key features of SEAF-30-06.0-SM-06-2-A-K-TR?
- 180-position open-pin-field array socket on 1.27 mm (0.050 inch) pitch enabling very high contact density per board area
- 6.0 mm stacking height accommodating mezzanine card separation in FPGA and memory expansion designs
- High-speed signal integrity design supporting data rates up to 25+ Gbps per differential pair
- Surface mount with tape-and-reel (-TR) packaging for automated pick-and-place assembly
- SEARAY open-pin-field architecture allowing any signal assignment to any pin without routing constraints
What is SEAF-30-06.0-SM-06-2-A-K-TR used for?
The SEAF-30-06.0-SM-06-2-A-K-TR is designed for high-bandwidth board-to-board interconnect in FPGA development boards, high-speed data acquisition systems, and network switch line cards where 180 signals must traverse the mezzanine interface at multi-gigabit data rates. Its open-pin-field design allows system architects to freely assign differential pairs, power, and ground pins without connector-imposed constraints, which is critical for SerDes routing in 25G Ethernet and PCIe Gen 4 applications. The 6.0 mm stacking height accommodates standard mezzanine card clearances used in VITA 57.1 FMC and similar module standards.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the SEAF-30-06.0-SM-06-2-A-K-TR provide, and on what pitch?
The SEAF-30-06.0-SM-06-2-A-K-TR provides 180 positions on a 1.27 mm (0.050 inch) pitch in an open-pin-field array layout. This high-density configuration delivers 180 independent signal or power connections within a footprint smaller than 40 mm x 8 mm, making it suitable for FPGA mezzanine and high-density daughtercard applications.
What stacking height does SEAF-30-06.0-SM-06-2-A-K-TR provide between mated boards?
The SEAF-30-06.0-SM-06-2-A-K-TR provides a 6.0 mm board-to-board stacking height when mated with the corresponding SEAM plug connector. This clearance is compatible with standard mezzanine form factors such as VITA 57.1 FMC, where components up to 5.5 mm tall on the mezzanine card must clear the carrier board surface.
At what data rates can the SEAF-30-06.0-SM-06-2-A-K-TR reliably transmit high-speed differential signals?
The SAMTEC SEARAY series connectors including the SEAF-30-06.0-SM-06-2-A-K-TR are characterized for high-speed differential signaling at data rates exceeding 25 Gbps per differential pair. Insertion loss remains below -3 dB at 12.5 GHz Nyquist, and return loss exceeds -15 dB across the operating bandwidth, supporting protocols including 25G Ethernet, PCIe Gen 4, and JESD204B.
What does the open-pin-field architecture of the SEARAY connector mean for PCB routing flexibility?
The open-pin-field architecture means none of the 180 pins are pre-assigned to specific signal functions by the connector specification. Designers can allocate any combination of high-speed differential pairs, single-ended signals, power, or ground to any of the 180 positions, providing full routing freedom. This contrasts with fixed-pinout connectors such as PCIe edge cards, where pin assignments are standardized and cannot be changed.
