Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the SFM-123-02-SM-D-A-K provide, and how are they arranged across rows?
The SFM-123-02-SM-D-A-K features 46 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration, with 23 positions per row on a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. This layout allows designers to route up to 46 independent signals or mixed signal-and-power connections within a compact PCB footprint suited to high-density board-to-board interconnect designs.
Which mating connectors pair with the SFM-123-02-SM-D-A-K for a fixed board-to-board stack height?
The SFM-123-02-SM-D-A-K mates with SAMTEC's TFM or SFM series headers on the same 0.050" (1.27 mm) dual-row pitch. Stack heights from approximately 4 mm to 20 mm are achievable by selecting the appropriate mating header height, enabling flexible separation between a motherboard and a 46-position daughtercard assembly.
Is the SFM-123-02-SM-D-A-K suitable for high-vibration industrial environments, and what retention force does it provide?
The SFM-123-02-SM-D-A-K is rated for -55°C to +125°C and provides mechanical mating retention through 46 contact engagement points, each contributing individual spring-loaded contact force. For environments with vibration levels exceeding 5 g, SAMTEC recommends supplementary mechanical fastening or adhesive underfill to maintain reliable electrical contact across all 46 pins.
What is the current capacity of the SFM-123-02-SM-D-A-K across all pins combined?
Each of the 46 contacts in the SFM-123-02-SM-D-A-K is rated at 1 A, giving a combined maximum capacity of 46 A when all pins carry load simultaneously. In practice, designers derate this by 20-30% under elevated temperatures above 85°C, limiting reliable total current to approximately 32-37 A for mixed signal and power distribution use cases.
