Key Features
- 10-position dual-row socket at ultra-compact 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch enables high-density SMT interconnect in space-critical PCB designs
- High-reliability socket strip construction supports demanding mating cycle requirements in industrial, medical, and aerospace board-level applications
- Horizontal surface mount form factor with tape-and-reel packaging facilitates automated pick-and-place assembly in high-volume production environments
Applications
The SFM-105-02-H-D-A-K-TR is designed for board-to-board and mezzanine module interconnects in high-density applications such as RF modules, FPGA expansion cards, and medical device PCBs requiring a 0.050 inch pitch in a surface mount package. Its high-reliability socket strip design suits military and aerospace embedded computing platforms where vibration resistance and consistent mating performance across 10 dual-row contacts are critical. The tape-and-reel format supports automated SMT assembly lines for efficient high-volume production.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pitch and position count does the SFM-105-02-H-D-A-K-TR socket strip support?
The SFM-105-02-H-D-A-K-TR is a 10-position dual-row socket strip with an ultra-fine 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, providing 20 total contacts in a compact surface mount footprint. This makes it suitable for high-density interconnects on small PCBs where the standard 0.100 inch pitch would consume too much board area.
What high-reliability features make SFM-105-02-H-D-A-K-TR suitable for aerospace or medical applications?
The SFM series high-reliability socket strips are designed for applications requiring consistent electrical contact and mechanical integrity across many mating cycles in rugged environments. With 10 dual-row positions at 0.050 inch pitch and horizontal SMT mounting, this connector supports aerospace avionics boards, implantable medical modules, and defense electronics where failure rates must remain extremely low over the product lifetime.
How does the tape-and-reel packaging of SFM-105-02-H-D-A-K-TR benefit high-volume PCB manufacturing?
The TR (tape-and-reel) suffix means the 10-position socket strips are packaged on a continuous reel for automated pick-and-place machines, eliminating manual placement at the 0.050 inch pitch where human placement error rates would be high. This format is essential for volume production runs of 1000 or more boards and helps maintain consistent solder joint quality on fine-pitch SMT assemblies.
When should SFM-105-02-H-D-A-K-TR be chosen over a 0.100 inch pitch socket for a board-to-board design?
Choose the SFM-105-02-H-D-A-K-TR when PCB area is severely constrained and the design must route 10 signal pairs (20 contacts) in a footprint roughly half the size of an equivalent 0.100 inch pitch connector. The 0.050 inch pitch is especially advantageous in compact RF modules, camera modules, or wearable medical sensors where every square millimeter of board space is valuable.
