What are the key features of SFM-116-02-FM-D-LC-TR?

  • 32 positions across dual-row 1.27 mm (0.050 inch) pitch layout for compact high-reliability SMT socket connections
  • Flush-mount (FM) contact design reducing protrusion height for ultra-low-profile board-to-board mating
  • Lead-count optimized (LC) footprint minimizing PCB pad area while maintaining mechanical and electrical reliability

What is SFM-116-02-FM-D-LC-TR used for?

SFM-116-02-FM-D-LC-TR is suited for small mezzanine module sockets, SPI/I2C peripheral daughter-card interfaces, and compact embedded computing add-on boards where 32 signals must be routed across a tight 1.27 mm pitch socket. The flush-mount contact variant keeps the connector profile low for slim enclosures in portable test equipment and wearable devices. It also serves FPGA evaluation boards and industrial control modules requiring a dependable, space-efficient 32-position SMT socket.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the FM (flush-mount) designation mean for SFM-116-02-FM-D-LC-TR, and when does it matter for connector selection?

Flush-mount contacts sit at or below the connector housing top surface rather than protruding above it. For a 32-position socket at 1.27 mm pitch, this reduces the risk of contact damage during board handling and allows the mated assembly to achieve a lower overall height — often reducing the board-to-board gap by 0.5 mm or more compared to standard protruding contact versions. This matters in handheld devices or slim multi-board assemblies where every fraction of a millimeter in stack height counts.

For a 32-signal parallel bus between a main PCB and a plug-in daughter card, how does SFM-116-02-FM-D-LC-TR compare to a 2.54 mm pitch alternative?

At 1.27 mm pitch, SFM-116-02-FM-D-LC-TR fits 32 positions in a footprint approximately 20 mm long and 2.54 mm wide. A 2.54 mm pitch 32-position dual-row connector would stretch to roughly 40 mm, doubling the PCB area consumed. For designs where the daughter card must fit within a 25 mm board width, the 0.050 inch pitch socket is typically the only single-connector option available.

Which test and measurement scenarios benefit from choosing SFM-116-02-FM-D-LC-TR over a wire-to-board connector for 32-channel signal routing?

Board-to-board socket connections are preferred in benchtop test fixtures where a plug-in measurement module must be swapped repeatedly without soldering. The SFM-116 socket's 32 positions at 1.27 mm pitch allow a compact analog or digital acquisition sub-board to dock directly onto a main capture card, supporting signal bandwidths beyond 100 MHz with shorter trace lengths than a wire harness, and maintaining consistent contact impedance across repeated insertions.
