Frequently Asked Questions
What contact pitch and row configuration does the SFM-115-02-L-D-A-K-TR use?
The SFM-115-02-L-D-A-K-TR uses a 2.00 mm pitch dual-row configuration with 15 positions per row, totaling 30 positions. This dual-row layout provides high-density connectivity in a compact footprint suitable for space-constrained PCB designs requiring reliable board-to-board interconnect with gold-plated contacts.
How does the Tiger Eye contact technology in the SFM-115-02-L-D-A-K-TR benefit high-cycle mating applications?
Tiger Eye contact technology provides a unique wiping action during mating, achieving lower insertion force while maintaining strong contact retention across repeated mating cycles. The beryllium copper contacts with gold (10 µin) plating resist oxidation, ensuring stable contact resistance below 20 mΩ even after hundreds of mate-unmate cycles in industrial or test equipment environments.
When should engineers choose the SFM-115-02-L-D-A-K-TR tape-and-reel format over a tray-packaged alternative?
The TR (tape and reel) format is the optimal choice when placing the SFM-115-02-L-D-A-K-TR on automated SMT pick-and-place lines running high-volume production, as it feeds directly into standard 12 mm or 16 mm feeder lanes. Tray packaging suits prototyping and low-volume hand-placement where reel handling equipment is unavailable, while tape-and-reel reduces per-placement cycle time on lines processing thousands of boards per shift.
What termination finish does the SFM-115-02-L-D-A-K-TR use for PCB solder attachment?
The SFM-115-02-L-D-A-K-TR uses a tin (Sn) termination finish with a nickel (Ni) barrier on the PCB solder tails, making it compatible with standard lead-free SAC305 solder paste reflow processes at peak temperatures up to 260 °C. The nickel barrier prevents tin-copper intermetallic diffusion, improving long-term solder joint reliability in thermally cycled assemblies.
