Frequently Asked Questions
What are the position count and pitch of the SFM-116-02-STL-D-LC-TR?
The SFM-116-02-STL-D-LC-TR provides 32 total positions in a dual-row (2 x 16) arrangement with a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. This layout spans approximately 20 mm in board length, delivering 32 independent signal or power contacts within a highly compact SMT footprint.
How does the stainless steel locking feature protect connections in avionics or robotics enclosures?
The stainless steel locking hardware resists corrosion and maintains a mated contact resistance below 20 mΩ even under repeated shock events of 50 G or vibration at 15 G across 10 Hz to 2000 Hz. This makes the connector reliable for avionics black boxes, industrial robot arms, and ruggedized embedded controllers operating between -55°C and +125°C.
For a 32-signal mezzanine card design, how does SFM-116-02-STL-D-LC-TR compare to a 0.100" pitch alternative?
Switching from a 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch to the 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch SFM-116 halves the connector footprint length from approximately 40 mm to 20 mm for the same 32 positions. This saves roughly 200 mm² of PCB area per connector pair, critical in mezzanine modules where board dimensions are fixed at 100 mm x 60 mm or smaller.
Does the LC contact finish on this Samtec SFM connector meet lead-free manufacturing requirements?
Yes, the LC designation confirms the contact plating is lead-free and RoHS compliant. It is engineered to withstand SAC305 reflow profiles peaking at 260°C for up to 10 seconds, making it compatible with standard lead-free SMT processes used in consumer, industrial, and automotive-adjacent electronics manufacturing.
