What are the key features of SEAF-30-06.0-STL-08-2-A-LP-K-TR?

  • 240-position open-pin-field array socket at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch supporting configurable signal, power, and ground assignments across all pins
  • High-speed SEARAY architecture rated beyond 25 Gbps per channel, designed for demanding PCIe, 40G Ethernet, and FPGA mezzanine interfaces
  • Straddle-mount (STL) PCB edge termination with low-profile (LP) body height enabling compact board-edge mating with minimal above-board clearance

What is SEAF-30-06.0-STL-08-2-A-LP-K-TR used for?

The SEAF-30-06.0-STL-08-2-A-LP-K-TR is designed for high-speed FPGA mezzanine, PCIe expansion, and 40G/100G network line card interconnects where 240 configurable positions at 0.050" pitch provide maximum routing flexibility. Its straddle-mount low-profile design is ideal for blade server, switch fabric, and data center accelerator card designs that require high bandwidth across a compact board edge. The open-pin-field architecture allows hardware engineers to assign power, ground, and signal pins freely to optimize signal integrity and power distribution per the specific application.

Frequently Asked Questions

What signal speed can SEAF-30-06.0-STL-08-2-A-LP-K-TR support per channel, and how many positions does it provide?

The SEAF-30-06.0-STL-08-2-A-LP-K-TR supports data rates exceeding 25 Gbps per channel through its SEARAY high-speed contact architecture, with 240 total positions available in an open-pin-field array at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. This makes it suitable for demanding interfaces such as PCIe Gen 4, 40G Ethernet, and high-bandwidth FPGA mezzanine connections in data center and telecom line card applications.

What is the open-pin-field feature of SEAF-30-06.0-STL-08-2-A-LP-K-TR, and why does it benefit FPGA carrier board design?

The open-pin-field design of the SEAF-30-06.0-STL-08-2-A-LP-K-TR means all 240 positions at 0.050" pitch are electrically identical in the connector housing, allowing hardware designers to freely assign any pin as signal, power, or ground in the PCB routing. This is especially valuable for FPGA mezzanine boards, where the power-to-signal ratio and ground plane distribution can be tuned per design rather than being locked to a fixed connector pinout, enabling better signal integrity and power delivery optimization.

How does the low-profile straddle-mount style of SEAF-30-06.0-STL-08-2-A-LP-K-TR help in blade server card designs?

The straddle-mount (STL) termination style mounts the SEAF-30-06.0-STL-08-2-A-LP-K-TR at the PCB edge, with the low-profile (LP) body height reducing the above-board protrusion compared to standard-height SEARAY sockets. In blade server and switch fabric card designs where adjacent cards are spaced as close as 6 mm to 10 mm, the reduced height allows 240-position high-speed connectors to be used without violating mechanical card clearance rules, enabling denser rack configurations.
