What are the key features of SFM-103-02-LM-D-A-P?
- 6 positions in dual-row, 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch surface-mount socket strip format
- Long-mount (LM) lead style increases standoff height for underfill or inspection access
- High-reliability construction for demanding aerospace, defense, and industrial interconnect applications
- Compact 6-pin dual-row footprint minimizes PCB area in space-constrained module interfaces
- Tray (non-tape-and-reel) packaging suitable for prototype and lower-volume production programs
What is SFM-103-02-LM-D-A-P used for?
The SFM-103-02-LM-D-A-P is designed for ultra-compact board-to-board and module interconnect applications in industrial control, medical devices, and embedded computing systems where only 6 signals need to cross a mezzanine boundary. Its 0.050-inch pitch dual-row socket allows designers to interface small daughter cards or sensor modules with minimal PCB footprint. The long-mount lead style provides extra clearance for underfill dispensing or automated optical inspection without requiring a mechanical standoff.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many signal contacts does the SFM-103-02-LM-D-A-P provide, and in what row arrangement?
The SFM-103-02-LM-D-A-P provides 6 total signal contacts arranged in a dual-row configuration with 3 contacts per row, at a 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch. This minimal contact count makes it the right choice for compact module interfaces where only a small number of power or digital signals cross a board-to-board boundary.
What advantage does the LM (long-mount) lead style provide in the SFM-103-02-LM-D-A-P for PCB assembly processes?
The LM (long-mount) suffix increases the standoff height between the SFM-103-02-LM-D-A-P body and the PCB pad surface by providing a longer solder tail. On a 6-pin socket this extra clearance, typically a fraction of a millimeter more than the standard lead, allows conformal coating nozzles or optical inspection cameras to access the solder joints beneath the connector body after reflow.
Is SFM-103-02-LM-D-A-P supplied in tape-and-reel and how does this affect prototyping versus production ordering?
The SFM-103-02-LM-D-A-P is not a tape-and-reel part; it ships in tray packaging, making it better suited for prototype builds and low-to-medium volume production. Engineers needing automated pick-and-place feeding for high-volume runs should consider equivalent SFM variants with a TR suffix, as tray-packed 6-pin sockets require manual placement or a tray-feeder-equipped SMT line.
In what types of industrial or embedded designs is a 6-position, 0.050-inch pitch SMT socket like the SFM-103-02-LM-D-A-P most commonly used?
A 6-position, 0.050-inch pitch dual-row socket is commonly used for interfacing small sensor modules, calibration ports, configuration headers, or power rails in embedded computing boards and industrial instruments. The compact 1.27 mm pitch keeps the connector footprint well under 10 mm in length, preserving board space in densely populated PCB layouts.
