Key Features
- 10-position dual-row socket strip at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch for compact, high-density SMT board-to-board mating with minimal footprint
- High-reliability contact design with gold-plated contacts rated 1.0 A per pin ensures stable low-resistance connections over repeated mate-demate cycles
- Surface mount configuration is compatible with standard SMT reflow processes for automated high-volume PCB assembly
Applications
The SFM-105-L2-LM-D-A is used in compact module-to-baseboard interconnect designs, including FPGA expansion headers, sensor interface modules, and embedded computing daughtercards where 10 positions at 0.050" pitch keep the connector footprint small. Its high-reliability construction also makes it suitable for test and measurement sockets and avionics signal routing where consistent contact integrity across many mating cycles is essential.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the SFM-105-L2-LM-D-A provide, and what current can each contact carry?
The SFM-105-L2-LM-D-A has 10 positions arranged in a dual-row layout, with each contact rated at 1.0 A. For a design routing mixed power and signal lines through the same connector, the 1.0 A per-pin rating sets the maximum current that any single pin may carry without exceeding the thermal limits of the gold-plated contact.
Is the SFM-105-L2-LM-D-A interchangeable with other SAMTEC SFM series sockets of a different position count?
Within the SAMTEC SFM series, all variants share the same 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch and contact style, but the position count changes the overall connector length. A 10-position part like the SFM-105 is not directly interchangeable with 15- or 20-position variants because the mating plug must match exactly; however, the pin-to-pin pitch and pad layout per position are identical, making PCB redesigns straightforward.
What assembly process is recommended for soldering the SFM-105-L2-LM-D-A onto a PCB?
The SFM-105-L2-LM-D-A is designed for surface mount reflow soldering, compatible with lead-free processes at typical peak temperatures around 260°C per J-STD-020. The SMT footprint can be placed by standard pick-and-place equipment using the component's 0.050" pitch land pattern, and solder paste volume should be controlled carefully at the 1.27 mm pitch to avoid bridging between adjacent pads.
