Frequently Asked Questions
What pitch and total contact count does the SFM-102-T2-H-D-A provide?
The SFM-102-T2-H-D-A uses a fine 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch and provides 8 total contacts in a 4-position dual-row surface mount socket configuration, enabling high-density PCB interconnects where space is at a premium.
Which SAMTEC pin headers mate with the SFM-102-T2-H-D-A socket strip?
The SFM-102-T2-H-D-A is designed to mate with SAMTEC TSM-series and compatible 0.050" pitch dual-row pin headers. The precision socket contacts accept pins with a 0.025" (0.64 mm) square post, ensuring reliable low-resistance connections across up to 8 signal lines.
How does the 0.050" pitch SFM series compare to 0.100" pitch connectors for space-critical designs?
At 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, the SFM-102-T2-H-D-A occupies roughly half the PCB real estate of a standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch connector for the same contact count, making it the preferred choice when board area is limited to less than 10 mm for the connector footprint.
Is the SFM-102-T2-H-D-A qualified for high-reliability aerospace or defense applications?
Yes, SAMTEC SFM-series socket strips are built to high-reliability standards with gold-plated contacts offering a contact resistance of less than 20 mΩ and durability rated for at least 30 mating cycles, making them suitable for aerospace, defense, and harsh industrial environments.
