Key Features
- 64-position dual-row surface mount socket on ultra-fine 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch enabling very high contact density—128 total mating points—in a 1.675-inch body for compact PCB interconnects
- Tiger Eye contact technology with 10 µin gold mating finish delivering low, stable contact resistance and high reliability over many thousands of mating cycles
- Board-mounting peg and tin-over-nickel SMT termination providing mechanical registration accuracy and robust solder joint integrity during reflow assembly
Applications
The SFM-132-02-L-D-A-K is designed for high-density board-to-board and module-to-carrier interconnects in miniaturized electronics such as compact embedded computers, military ruggedized systems, and advanced telecommunications line cards. Its 64-position dual-row layout at 0.050" pitch concentrates 128 contacts into a 1.675" long body, replacing multiple larger connectors and enabling aggressive PCB miniaturization. Engineers deploy this socket in high-cycle test fixtures and FPGA module interfaces where Tiger Eye contacts provide the sustained reliability required for thousands of insertions.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many total contacts does the SFM-132-02-L-D-A-K provide and what is its overall body length?
The SFM-132-02-L-D-A-K provides 64 positions in a dual-row layout—128 total mating contacts—within a body measuring 1.675 inches (approximately 42.5 mm) long on a 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, making it one of the higher-density socket strips in SAMTEC's SFM series.
What is the Tiger Eye contact technology and how does it improve connector reliability?
Tiger Eye is SAMTEC's proprietary contact design that uses a curved, spring-loaded gold-plated contact beam with a 10 µin gold mating finish. It provides a consistent normal force and wiping action during mating, resulting in low and stable contact resistance across thousands of insertion cycles compared to standard stamped contact designs.
Does the board-mounting peg on SFM-132-02-L-D-A-K affect PCB assembly alignment?
Yes. The mounting peg registers the 1.675-inch body accurately into a PCB locating hole before soldering, preventing the connector from shifting during reflow. This is particularly important for 0.050" pitch fine-pitch SMT connectors where even small misalignments of 0.1 mm or more can cause bridging or open solder joints.
For a compact FPGA module interface requiring 64 signals, why choose SFM-132-02-L-D-A-K over a 0.100" pitch alternative?
At 0.050" pitch, this 64-position dual-row socket fits in roughly half the PCB length of an equivalent 0.100" pitch socket, freeing board area for other components on a constrained FPGA module. The Tiger Eye contacts maintain signal integrity at the shorter pitch for digital signals up to several hundred MHz without the attenuation penalties that longer, higher-inductance contacts at 2.54 mm pitch would introduce.
