Key Features
- 34-position dual-row configuration on 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch enabling high-density interconnect in compact PCB footprints
- Tiger Eye contact design providing wiping action and superior mating reliability over thousands of insertion cycles
- Lead-free matte tin (LFM) plating ensuring RoHS compliance and compatibility with standard SAC reflow soldering processes
- Socket strip format accepting male header or pin-field counterparts for flexible board-to-board and mezzanine stacking arrangements
Applications
SFC-117-T2-LFM-D-A is used in high-density mezzanine board stacking, prototyping backplanes, and test-fixture interconnects where 0.050" pitch and 34 dual-row contacts provide reliable signal routing in a compact footprint. Its Tiger Eye socket design is well-suited for production test sockets, daughtercard connectors, and FPGA mezzanine interfaces requiring low-insertion-force mating with durable contact retention. The LFM finish supports lead-free reflow assembly, making it a standard choice for industrial and communications equipment PCB designs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions and what pitch does SFC-117-T2-LFM-D-A provide for board-to-board interconnect?
SFC-117-T2-LFM-D-A offers 34 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration on a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, delivering 68 total contact points in a compact footprint suitable for high-density mezzanine and daughtercard signal routing.
What contact plating does SFC-117-T2-LFM-D-A use and is it RoHS compliant?
The connector uses lead-free matte tin (LFM) plating on its contacts and terminations, making it fully RoHS compliant and compatible with standard SAC305 lead-free reflow soldering profiles used in modern electronics manufacturing.
In which applications does the Tiger Eye contact design of SFC-117-T2-LFM-D-A outperform standard socket strips?
The Tiger Eye contact geometry provides a wiping action during mating, removing surface contaminants and ensuring consistent low-resistance connections across repeated insertion cycles, making it preferable in test sockets, field-replaceable modules, and production fixtures where cycle life exceeds 100 insertions.
What counterpart male headers mate reliably with SFC-117-T2-LFM-D-A on a 0.050" grid?
SFC-117-T2-LFM-D-A accepts standard 0.050" pitch dual-row male headers such as Samtec TSM or FTS series with 17 positions per row, providing a matched mating pair for mezzanine stacking heights from 8 mm to 20 mm depending on the selected male header variant.
