What are the key features of SFM-106-02-F-D-A-P?
- 12-position dual-row layout on 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch enabling high-density connections in a minimal PCB footprint
- Anti-backout locking mechanism (A suffix) prevents unintentional connector separation under vibration or shock
- Gold-plated contacts for low contact resistance and reliable mating over thousands of cycles
- Surface-mount termination compatible with standard 260°C SMT reflow soldering profiles
What is SFM-106-02-F-D-A-P used for?
The SFM-106-02-F-D-A-P is designed for compact, high-reliability board-to-board interconnect in portable medical devices, aerospace instrumentation, and dense embedded computing modules where secure mating is critical. The 12-position dual-row layout on 0.050-inch pitch allows 6 signal pairs to be routed through a very small SMT footprint, ideal for space-constrained designs. The anti-backout feature ensures connection integrity in applications subject to vibration levels up to 10G.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the SFM-106-02-F-D-A-P have, and what pitch does it use?
The SFM-106-02-F-D-A-P has 12 positions in a dual-row arrangement (6 per row) on a 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch. This fine pitch allows the connector to occupy a footprint of roughly 7.62 mm × 2.54 mm, making it highly suitable for compact, space-constrained surface-mount designs in portable and handheld electronics.
What does the anti-backout feature of the SFM-106-02-F-D-A-P provide in vibration-prone environments?
The anti-backout locking mechanism (denoted by the A suffix) mechanically retains the mated connector pair to resist separation under vibration and shock loads. In aerospace avionics and industrial motor-drive applications where vibration can exceed 5G RMS, this feature ensures the 12-position connection remains secure without requiring additional mechanical retention hardware or secondary locking clips.
Which compact embedded system designs benefit most from the SFM-106-02-F-D-A-P?
Designs such as wearable medical monitors, drone flight controllers, and miniature data loggers benefit most from the SFM-106-02-F-D-A-P. The 12-position, 1.27 mm pitch format delivers 6 differential pairs or 12 single-ended signals in a footprint under 1 cm², and the gold-plated contacts maintain contact resistance below 20 mΩ across at least 500 mating cycles at temperatures from -55°C to 125°C.
How does the SFM-106-02-F-D-A-P differ from a non-locking SFM series variant for a rugged PCB design?
The SFM-106-02-F-D-A-P includes an anti-backout locking feature (A suffix) that standard non-locking SFM variants lack. In rugged PCB designs exposed to shock pulses above 50G or continuous vibration, the locking mechanism reduces the risk of intermittent contacts by maintaining a consistent mating force of approximately 100 gf per 12-position connector pair, eliminating the need for bracket or cable-tie retention solutions.
