What are the key features of SFM-117-02-FM-D-K-TR?

  • 34-position dual-row socket at 0.050" pitch delivers high-density signal interconnect in a compact SMT footprint
  • Female mating (FM suffix) interface accepts standard SFM-compatible plug strips for secure, low-insertion-force mating
  • Gold-plated contacts ensure reliable electrical contact and low resistance across high mating-cycle lifetimes
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging facilitates seamless integration into automated pick-and-place PCB assembly lines

What is SFM-117-02-FM-D-K-TR used for?

The SFM-117-02-FM-D-K-TR is used in high-density board stacking for embedded computing modules, FPGA daughtercards, and telecom mezzanine interconnects requiring 34 channels at a 0.050" pitch. The female mating interface mates directly with SAMTEC SFM plug strips, enabling reliable daughtercard attachment with repeatability over hundreds of mating cycles. Its SMT construction and tape-and-reel packaging support high-throughput automated assembly in compact electronic systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many positions does the SFM-117-02-FM-D-K-TR provide and what is its contact pitch?

The SFM-117-02-FM-D-K-TR provides 34 positions in a dual-row configuration at a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, with 17 pins per row. This fine 0.050" pitch allows 34 signals to be routed within a much smaller PCB footprint than 0.100" pitch connectors of similar position count, making it ideal for compact embedded board designs.

For a high-cycle FPGA mezzanine design, how many mating cycles can be expected from the SFM-117-02-FM-D-K-TR's gold-plated contacts?

SAMTEC's high-reliability SFM series with gold-plated contacts is typically rated for a minimum of 100 mating cycles under standard laboratory conditions, with many variants tested to higher cycle counts. For FPGA mezzanine applications where daughtercards may be swapped during development, the gold-plated surface finish maintains contact resistance below 50 mΩ throughout the rated mating cycle life.

How does the SFM-117-02-FM-D-K-TR compare to a 34-pin 0.100" pitch alternative in terms of PCB space savings?

The 0.050" pitch of the SFM-117-02-FM-D-K-TR reduces the connector footprint by approximately 75% compared to a 34-position 0.100" pitch dual-row connector, since the pitch is halved in both dimensions. This space reduction is significant in compact designs such as System-on-Module (SoM) carrier boards where multiple 34-pin connectors must fit within a few square centimeters of PCB area.
