What are the key features of SFM-102-02-F-D-A-P-TR?

  • 4-position dual-row socket at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch providing a minimal SMT footprint for ultra-compact board-to-board connections
  • Flat (F) contact style with gold plating offering stable low-contact-resistance mating across high insertion cycle counts
  • Surface mount assembly compatible with automated pick-and-place and standard reflow soldering at temperatures up to 260°C
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enabling direct loading into SMT assembly machines for efficient high-volume production runs

What is SFM-102-02-F-D-A-P-TR used for?

The SFM-102-02-F-D-A-P-TR is used in compact board-to-board interconnect scenarios where 4 signal or power pins need to be routed between a main PCB and a small daughterboard or module, such as wireless communication add-on cards, sensor breakout boards, and JTAG debug interfaces. Its dual-row 0.050" pitch design is well suited for wearable electronics, handheld instruments, and IoT edge devices where minimizing connector footprint directly translates to smaller end-product dimensions. The flat contact style is particularly valued in applications where low insertion force and repeatable mating are important.

Frequently Asked Questions

What distinguishes the SFM-102-02-F-D-A-P-TR from the SFM-102-T2-SM-D-LC-TR within the same SFM series?

The SFM-102-02-F-D-A-P-TR uses flat (F) contact geometry and a standard SMT pad configuration, while the SFM-102-T2-SM-D-LC-TR specifies a T2 tail style and LC lead coplanarity feature. Both share the same 4-position dual-row layout at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, but the choice between them depends on PCB pad design, desired insertion force profile, and whether lead coplanarity control is critical for the solder reflow process.

Can the SFM-102-02-F-D-A-P-TR be used in a JTAG debug connector interface on a compact embedded system?

Yes, the SFM-102-02-F-D-A-P-TR's 4-position dual-row footprint is suitable for a minimal JTAG or SWD debug port supporting up to 4 signals such as TDI, TDO, TCK, and TMS at signal speeds compatible with standard JTAG interfaces operating at 1 MHz to 20 MHz. Its compact 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch keeps the debug header footprint under 5 mm in width, which is a practical size for embedded boards where debug access is needed without sacrificing significant PCB area.

How does the gold plating on SFM-102-02-F-D-A-P-TR contacts benefit its reliability in field-serviceable equipment?

Gold-plated contacts on the SFM-102-02-F-D-A-P-TR maintain stable contact resistance—typically below 20 mΩ—over many hundreds of mating cycles, which is critical in field-serviceable equipment where module swap-in and swap-out occurs frequently. Gold's inert surface chemistry prevents oxide layer buildup that would increase contact resistance over time, ensuring consistent signal integrity for low-level analog or digital signals even after 500 or more insertion cycles.

What solder reflow temperature profile is the SFM-102-02-F-D-A-P-TR rated for during PCB assembly?

SAMTEC's SFM series surface mount connectors, including the SFM-102-02-F-D-A-P-TR, are designed to withstand standard lead-free solder reflow profiles with peak temperatures up to 260°C for durations typically not exceeding 30 seconds above 255°C. This compliance with IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow profiles ensures the connector survives double-sided SMT assembly without deforming the housing or degrading contact integrity.
