What are the key features of SFM-103-T2-FM-D-A-P?
- 6-position dual-row SMD socket strip on 0.050-inch (1.27mm) pitch for compact board-to-board signal connections with minimal PCB footprint
- Flat mounting (FM) variant with polarizing peg (P) prevents misalignment during mating, ensuring error-free assembly in production environments
- High-reliability gold-plated contacts rated for 200+ mating cycles with contact resistance under 20mΩ for dependable signal integrity
What is SFM-103-T2-FM-D-A-P used for?
The SFM-103-T2-FM-D-A-P is suited for compact board-to-board connections in embedded system modules, sensor interface boards, and small FPGA daughter cards where only 6 signals need to cross a 0.050-inch pitch interface. The flat-mount and polarizing-peg design make it ideal for automated assembly lines handling mixed-signal or power-plus-signal 6-pin configurations that require positive mating orientation. It also appears in test fixture designs and compact industrial I/O breakout boards where reliable low-pin-count connectors are preferred over wire-to-board harnesses.

Frequently Asked Questions
What position count and pitch does SFM-103-T2-FM-D-A-P provide for board-to-board connections?
The SFM-103-T2-FM-D-A-P is a 6-position dual-row socket arranged as 2 rows of 3 contacts on a 0.050-inch (1.27mm) pitch. This configuration routes up to 6 signals including power and ground within a footprint of approximately 3.81mm x 2.54mm, making it one of the smallest dual-row SMD connectors available in the SAMTEC SFM series.
How does the flat mounting (FM) feature of SFM-103-T2-FM-D-A-P benefit PCB assembly?
The flat mounting feature seats the connector body flush against the PCB surface during reflow, preventing rocking or tilting that can cause solder joint failure at one or more of the 6 contacts. Combined with the polarizing peg (P) that locks into a 1.0mm board hole, the FM variant improves first-pass assembly yield on automated SMD lines processing over 1000 boards per day.
Which SAMTEC header series mates with SFM-103-T2-FM-D-A-P and what stack heights are available?
The SFM-103-T2-FM-D-A-P mates with SAMTEC TSM and TFM series dual-row 0.050-inch pitch headers, supporting board-to-board stack heights typically from 4mm to 20mm depending on the specific mating header length selected. The 6-position count is commonly used in compact sensor modules and signal conditioning daughter cards where a low pin count and precise board spacing under 10mm are required.
Is SFM-103-T2-FM-D-A-P appropriate for high-cycle test-fixture applications?
Yes, the SFM-103-T2-FM-D-A-P features gold-plated contacts with a contact resistance under 20mΩ and is rated for over 200 mating cycles, which supports moderate-cycle test-fixture use. For high-cycle test applications exceeding 500 insertions, SAMTEC recommends their dedicated test-grade socket variants, but the SFM series remains suitable for functional test jigs where boards are inserted fewer than 200 times across a product's production run.
