Key Features
- 6-position dual-row socket strip at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch enabling compact high-density signal interconnect in minimal board space
- Tape-and-reel (-TR) packaging optimized for automated high-volume SMT placement and reflow soldering processes
- High-reliability construction with gold-plated contacts providing consistent low resistance and extended mating cycle performance
- Surface mount termination compatible with standard reflow profiles, eliminating through-hole drilling for simplified PCB fabrication
Applications
The SFM-103-L2-LM-D-A-K-TR is ideal for compact board-to-board and module-level interconnect applications in consumer electronics, industrial controls, and medical devices where a 6-position 1.27 mm pitch SMT socket is required. Its tape-and-reel packaging makes it suitable for high-volume automated assembly lines, ensuring consistent placement and reliable solder joints on dense PCBs. The dual-row configuration maximizes contact density in a small footprint, supporting reliable signal connections in embedded modules and sensor interface boards.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the SFM-103-L2-LM-D-A-K-TR have and what is the connector pitch?
The SFM-103-L2-LM-D-A-K-TR is a 6-position, dual-row socket strip with a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. Despite its small position count, the dual-row layout allows 6 contacts to be arranged efficiently in a compact footprint, making it suitable for low-signal-count board-to-board connections in space-constrained designs.
What does the -TR suffix on SFM-103-L2-LM-D-A-K-TR indicate about packaging, and why does it matter for manufacturing?
The -TR suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging, which allows the SFM-103-L2-LM-D-A-K-TR to be fed directly into automated SMT pick-and-place machines. This packaging is essential for high-volume production, reducing manual handling of individual 6-position connectors and ensuring consistent placement accuracy on PCBs with 1.27 mm pitch footprints.
Which design scenarios benefit most from selecting a 6-position version like SFM-103-L2-LM-D-A-K-TR over a higher-count SAMTEC SFM series connector?
The 6-position SFM-103-L2-LM-D-A-K-TR is the right choice for interfaces that require only a small number of signal or power connections, such as sensor modules, UART or SPI inter-board links, or power rail connections at 1.27 mm pitch. Using a 6-position connector rather than a 20-position or 54-position variant reduces board space consumption and connector cost while maintaining the same high-reliability SMT construction.
