What are the key features of SFM-118-02-SM-D-A-K-TR?
- 36 positions on 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) dual-row pitch delivers high pin density for compact mezzanine board-to-board interconnects
- High-reliability SMT socket strip construction withstands repeated mating cycles for field-replaceable daughter-card interfaces
- Tape-and-reel packaging enables automated pick-and-place assembly in high-volume PCB production lines
What is SFM-118-02-SM-D-A-K-TR used for?
The SFM-118-02-SM-D-A-K-TR is used in high-density mezzanine card stacking for communications, server blade, and test equipment designs where 36 signals must be routed across a compact 0.050-inch pitch interface. Its surface-mount footprint integrates directly into reflow soldering processes without manual through-hole assembly steps. The high-reliability construction makes it suitable for defense, aerospace, and industrial instrumentation applications requiring a durable board-to-board socket.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many signals can the SFM-118-02-SM-D-A-K-TR route, and what pitch does it use for high-density layouts?
The SFM-118-02-SM-D-A-K-TR provides 36 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration on a 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch. This spacing achieves twice the pin density of standard 0.100-inch headers in the same board length, making it practical for compact mezzanine designs in server blades and test equipment backplanes.
Is the SFM-118-02-SM-D-A-K-TR compatible with automated PCB assembly, and what packaging does it come in?
Yes, the connector is supplied in tape-and-reel format denoted by the TR suffix, which is compatible with standard SMT pick-and-place machines. The surface-mount termination style allows the part to pass through standard reflow ovens, supporting high-volume PCB production runs where manual connector insertion would be a throughput bottleneck.
For a defense module design, how does the high-reliability rating of the SFM-118-02-SM-D-A-K-TR compare to standard socket strips?
SAMTEC's SFM high-reliability series is designed for extended mating cycle durability and tighter contact retention force tolerances compared to standard commercial socket strips. The gold-plated contacts typically meet 500 mating cycle ratings, and the robust SMT housing maintains 36-pin signal integrity at 2 A per contact current capacity in vibration-prone defense and aerospace environments.
