Frequently Asked Questions
What contact finish does the SFM-122-L2-S-D-A-K use and why does it matter for signal reliability?
The SFM-122-L2-S-D-A-K uses a 30 micro-inch gold contact finish on the mating interface, with a tin over nickel barrier on the termination side. The 30 micro-inch gold plating provides superior corrosion resistance and low contact resistance across hundreds of mating cycles, which is critical for high-frequency signal integrity in applications such as FPGA expansion boards and high-speed data acquisition systems.
What is the Tiger Eye contact technology in SFM-122-L2-S-D-A-K and how does it improve connector performance?
Tiger Eye is a SAMTEC proprietary contact design that uses a dual-beam wiping action to achieve high normal force and reliable electrical contact. In the SFM-122-L2-S-D-A-K, this technology ensures consistent low resistance connections even after repeated mating cycles, vibration exposure, or thermal cycling, making it well suited for rugged industrial and defense applications requiring more than 100 mate-unmate cycles.
How many positions and what pitch does the SFM-122-L2-S-D-A-K provide for board-level interconnects?
The SFM-122-L2-S-D-A-K provides 44 positions in a dual-row layout with 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, giving 22 contacts per row. The body measures 1.175 inches long by 0.145 inches wide, supporting high-density PCB routing. This fine 0.050 inch pitch allows 44 signals in a footprint comparable to a 22-position 0.100 inch pitch connector.
Does the SFM-122-L2-S-D-A-K include a board mounting peg and what assembly benefit does this provide?
Yes, the SFM-122-L2-S-D-A-K includes a PEG board mounting option that provides mechanical registration to the PCB during soldering and mating. The mounting peg prevents the connector from shifting during reflow soldering, improving placement accuracy for the fine 0.050 inch pitch contacts. It also adds mechanical support to resist pull-out forces during plug-in operations in field-serviceable equipment.
