Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions and what pitch does the SFM-123-L2-LM-D-A-K offer for board-to-board connections?
The SFM-123-L2-LM-D-A-K provides 46 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration at a 1.27 mm (0.050 inch) pitch, delivering 23 contacts per row. This compact pitch allows high-density signal routing in space-constrained PCB layouts while maintaining sufficient mechanical stability for reliable SMT solder joints under vibration and thermal cycling conditions.
Which embedded computing or FPGA expansion designs benefit most from the SFM-123-L2-LM-D-A-K?
FPGA mezzanine cards, system-on-module (SOM) carrier boards, and high-speed data acquisition daughter cards with 46 signal lines benefit directly from the SFM-123-L2-LM-D-A-K at 1.27 mm pitch. Its gold-plated Tiger Eye contacts maintain contact resistance below 20 mΩ across repeated mating cycles, ensuring signal integrity for differential pairs running at hundreds of MHz in compact embedded platforms.
What makes the SFM-123-L2-LM-D-A-K suitable for high-reliability military or aerospace PCB assemblies?
The SFM-123-L2-LM-D-A-K uses beryllium copper contacts with gold plating and a nickel diffusion barrier, meeting the contact material requirements of high-reliability applications operating across temperature ranges from -55 °C to +125 °C. Tiger Eye contact geometry provides consistent normal force and wiping action, reducing the risk of intermittent connections in vibration-prone aerospace and defense environments where connector failure is not an option.
Can the SFM-123-L2-LM-D-A-K be used in lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, the SFM-123-L2-LM-D-A-K is compatible with lead-free SAC305 reflow soldering at peak temperatures up to 260 °C, per standard IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow profiles. The tin-with-nickel-barrier termination finish wets reliably with lead-free solder paste, and the connector body material is rated to withstand the thermal profile without warping, making it suitable for RoHS-compliant production lines.
