What are the key features of SFM-104-L2-STL-D-A-P?
- 8-position dual-row layout on a 1.27mm pitch for compact high-density SMT socket applications
- High-reliability contact design with precision tolerances for consistent mating force and low contact resistance
- Surface-mount termination with anti-wicking lead style (STL) preventing solder migration into contact area
What is SFM-104-L2-STL-D-A-P used for?
The SFM-104-L2-STL-D-A-P is designed for compact board-to-board and mezzanine connections in embedded modules, camera sensor interfaces, and portable medical devices where space is extremely limited and signal integrity is critical. Its 8-position high-reliability construction ensures repeatable electrical contact across many mating cycles without degradation, making it ideal for field-replaceable module connectors. The 1.27mm pitch maximizes I/O density in miniaturized SMT designs where every square millimeter of PCB area counts.

Frequently Asked Questions
What position count and pitch does the SFM-104-L2-STL-D-A-P connector offer?
The SFM-104-L2-STL-D-A-P is an 8-position dual-row socket on a 1.27mm (0.050 inch) pitch, delivering 8 high-reliability contacts in a very compact surface-mount footprint suitable for density-constrained PCB designs such as camera modules or sensor daughter boards.
What does the STL (anti-wicking lead) feature mean for soldering the SFM-104-L2-STL-D-A-P?
The STL designation stands for solder-thieving lead style, which incorporates a barrier on the connector leads that prevents molten solder from wicking up into the contact area during reflow; this preserves the clean mating interface on each of the 8 positions and ensures consistent contact resistance below typical limits of 20 milliohms after soldering.
In which miniaturized sensor or camera designs is the SFM-104-L2-STL-D-A-P preferred over larger connectors?
The SFM-104-L2-STL-D-A-P is preferred in wearable medical monitors, UAV camera boards, and IoT sensor nodes where only 8 signals need to be routed across a board-to-board interface; at 1.27mm pitch the connector occupies roughly half the footprint of a 2.54mm equivalent, freeing space for other components on densely populated sub-20mm-square PCBs.
How many mating cycles is the SFM-104-L2-STL-D-A-P rated for, and does that affect module replacement planning?
High-reliability SAMTEC SFM-series connectors are typically rated for a minimum of 100 mating cycles; for a field-replaceable 8-position module replaced quarterly, that equates to at least 25 years of service life, which usually exceeds the product lifecycle and removes connector wear as a maintenance concern in most industrial and medical deployment scenarios.
