What are the key features of SFM-108-02-S-D-LC-TR?

  • 16-position dual-row layout at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch with Tiger Eye contact technology for superior mating reliability
  • Gold (30 µin) mating contact finish ensures low contact resistance across thousands of mating cycles
  • Split Board Lock feature provides secure board mounting with reduced PCB stress during mating
  • Tape-and-reel packaging supports high-volume automated SMT pick-and-place assembly

What is SFM-108-02-S-D-LC-TR used for?

The SFM-108-02-S-D-LC-TR is used in compact board-to-board and mezzanine interconnect applications within networking, telecom, and industrial control systems. Its 16-position dual-row layout at 1.27 mm pitch delivers high contact density for signal-rich designs with limited PCB area. The Tiger Eye contact and gold finish make it well suited for high-cycle-life applications such as test fixtures and field-replaceable module sockets.

Frequently Asked Questions

What contact finish does the SFM-108-02-S-D-LC-TR use for mating and termination surfaces?

The SFM-108-02-S-D-LC-TR uses 30 µin gold plating on mating contacts for low-resistance, corrosion-resistant connections, while the termination contacts use tin (Sn) over a nickel (Ni) barrier, optimizing solderability for surface mount reflow processes across its 16 dual-row positions.

How does the Tiger Eye contact feature benefit the SFM-108-02-S-D-LC-TR in high-cycle applications?

The Tiger Eye contact design provides a dual-point wiping action during mating, which maintains reliable electrical contact across extended insertion cycles. This is especially valuable in test sockets and removable module applications where the 16-position connector may be mated and unmated hundreds of times without contact degradation.

Is the SFM-108-02-S-D-LC-TR suitable for replacing a through-hole 16-position socket on a redesigned PCB?

Yes. The SFM-108-02-S-D-LC-TR surface mount design at 1.27 mm pitch can replace through-hole 16-position sockets in a PCB redesign by eliminating drilling requirements. Its body length of 0.555 inch and Split Board Lock mounting simplify footprint migration while the tape-and-reel format enables automated placement for production boards.
