What are the key features of SFM-119-T2-LM-D-LC?

  • 38-position dual-row socket at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch providing high signal density for space-constrained board-to-board designs
  • Low-mid (LM) mating height profile balances compact board stack clearance with adequate component access between mated boards
  • T2 lead style optimized for surface mount reflow soldering with enhanced solder joint reliability across all 38 positions
  • High-reliability gold-plated contacts with LC retention for secure mating in industrial, defense, and communications applications

What is SFM-119-T2-LM-D-LC used for?

The SFM-119-T2-LM-D-LC is used in embedded computing modules, industrial backplane interfaces, and telecommunications line cards requiring 38-channel dual-row surface mount connectivity at 1.27 mm pitch. Its low-mid (LM) profile is chosen when the board-to-board stack height must be tightly controlled to fit within a defined enclosure while still allowing component clearance. The connector is also deployed in defense electronics and medical imaging systems where reliable, high pin-count SMT interconnects are critical.

Frequently Asked Questions

What distinguishes the LM (low-mid) mating height variant of the SFM-119 series from L and H alternatives?

The LM (low-mid) designation sets the mated board-to-board stack height at a mid-range between the low-profile (L) and tall (H) variants — typically around 4 mm to 6 mm above the PCB surface. Engineers select LM when the L profile provides insufficient clearance for components on the mated board, but the H profile would make the overall assembly too tall for the target enclosure, requiring all 38 positions to remain reliably mated.

How does the T2 lead style of the SFM-119-T2-LM-D-LC affect soldering and PCB footprint design?

The T2 lead style in SFM-119-T2-LM-D-LC features gull-wing or compliant surface mount terminations optimized for reflow soldering with improved paste coverage on the 38-position footprint. This lead style provides better solder joint inspection access compared to recessed terminations, making it easier to perform automated optical inspection (AOI) on the completed SMT assembly.

In which high-reliability industries is the SFM-119-T2-LM-D-LC particularly well-suited?

The SFM-119-T2-LM-D-LC is well-suited for defense electronics, industrial control systems, and medical devices where a 38-position, 1.27 mm pitch dual-row SMT socket must operate reliably across temperature ranges from -55°C to +125°C. The gold-plated contacts maintain low contact resistance over thousands of mating cycles, ensuring stable electrical performance in mission-critical applications.

Is the SFM-119-T2-LM-D-LC interchangeable with the SFM-119-02-SM-D-LC for the same PCB footprint?

Both the SFM-119-T2-LM-D-LC and SFM-119-02-SM-D-LC are 38-position dual-row sockets at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, but they differ in lead style (T2 vs. standard SM) and mating height profile (LM vs. standard). The PCB footprint land pattern dimensions may differ between lead style variants, so designers should verify the specific footprint drawing from Samtec before treating them as drop-in replacements on existing boards.
