What are the key features of SFM-108-T2-L-D-LC-TR?
- 16-position dual-row layout on 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch enabling high-density SMT signal interconnects in compact enclosures
- Low-profile (L) housing reduces overall mated stack height, critical for slim form-factor boards with tight z-axis constraints
- Low-current (LC) contacts with gold plating deliver reliable signal integrity with contact resistance below 20 milliohms
What is SFM-108-T2-L-D-LC-TR used for?
The SFM-108-T2-L-D-LC-TR is designed for slim board-to-board and mezzanine connections in portable devices, wearable electronics, and compact embedded modules. The 16-position count accommodates standard bus interfaces such as SPI, UART, and parallel data lines within a minimal PCB footprint. Tape-and-reel packaging enables high-throughput SMT production without manual connector handling.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the low-profile (L) housing of SFM-108-T2-L-D-LC-TR benefit slim PCB stack designs?
The low-profile housing of the SFM-108-T2-L-D-LC-TR reduces the mated connector height compared to standard-profile SFM variants, saving several millimeters of z-axis clearance. This is critical in portable and wearable devices where total PCB stack thickness must remain under 10 mm to fit within enclosure constraints.
What is the pitch and position count of the SFM-108-T2-L-D-LC-TR, and which bus interfaces does it support?
The SFM-108-T2-L-D-LC-TR provides 16 positions (8 per row) on a 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch. This configuration comfortably routes an 8-bit parallel bus, dual SPI channels, or combined UART and power lines through a single connector at logic voltages from 1.8 V to 5 V.
Why is tape-and-reel packaging important for SFM-108-T2-L-D-LC-TR in production environments?
Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging loads directly into SMT pick-and-place machines, eliminating manual placement of the 1.27 mm pitch connector. This is particularly valuable for medium and high-volume production runs where consistent placement accuracy within ±0.1 mm is needed to avoid tombstoning or bridging during reflow at peak temperatures up to 260°C.
When would the SFM-108-T2-L-D-LC-TR be preferred over a 22-position SFM-111 variant for a compact design?
The 16-position SFM-108-T2-L-D-LC-TR is preferred when the design requires fewer than 20 signal lines, reducing connector body length by approximately 1.5 mm compared to the 22-position SFM-111 variant on the same 1.27 mm pitch. This smaller footprint is advantageous on dense PCBs where every square millimeter of board space affects form factor or routing complexity.
