What are the key features of SFM-108-T2-S-D-K-TR?

  • 16 positions in a compact dual-row format at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch for dense board-to-board interconnects on space-constrained PCBs
  • Gold-plated (K option) contacts ensuring low, stable contact resistance across hundreds of mating cycles in high-reliability applications
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) format enabling direct loading into SMT pick-and-place equipment for consistent, high-throughput production

What is SFM-108-T2-S-D-K-TR used for?

The SFM-108-T2-S-D-K-TR is designed for compact mezzanine board stacking in wireless communication modules, camera sensor interfaces, and small-form-factor computing platforms requiring 16 high-density connections at 1.27 mm pitch. Its gold-plated contacts and high-reliability socket strip design also make it a strong choice for RF front-end modules and portable medical devices where repeated mating must not degrade signal performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

For a compact camera module PCB, how does the 0.050" pitch of the SFM-108-T2-S-D-K-TR compare to a 2.54 mm pitch socket for the same 16-position requirement?

At 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, the SFM-108-T2-S-D-K-TR spans only about 9 mm across 8 columns in a dual-row layout, compared to roughly 18 mm for an equivalent 2.54 mm pitch 16-position socket. This near-50% reduction in connector footprint length is decisive for compact camera modules and wireless SoC boards where PCB area is measured in fractions of a square centimeter.

How does the gold contact finish on the SFM-108-T2-S-D-K-TR contribute to signal integrity for high-speed interfaces?

The gold-plated K-option contacts on the SFM-108-T2-S-D-K-TR maintain contact resistance below a few milliohms and resist oxidation over time, preserving clean high-speed signal edges on interfaces operating at hundreds of MHz. For MIPI CSI-2, USB 2.0, or SDIO signals routed through the 16-position socket, stable low-resistance contacts prevent impedance discontinuities that would degrade eye diagrams and bit error rates.

When is the SFM-108-T2-S-D-K-TR a more appropriate choice than a flex cable assembly for connecting a 16-signal module to a main board?

The SFM-108-T2-S-D-K-TR is preferred over a flex cable when the board-to-board distance is less than 5 mm and a rigid, repeatable 16-pin mating interface is needed, because flex cables add height and introduce impedance variation along their length. The socket strip also simplifies rework—removing and re-inserting a daughter board takes seconds—whereas replacing a soldered flex cable assembly requires additional labor and risks board pad damage.
