What are the key features of SFM-134-02-FM-D-LC-TR?

  • 68-position dual-row SMT socket strip at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch providing dense signal interconnects across a compact 44.5 mm PCB footprint for mezzanine and module applications
  • LCP (liquid crystal polymer) housing with high thermal stability up to 260°C reflow temperature and moisture absorption below 0.02% for dimensional accuracy in precision assemblies
  • FM solder tail configuration with tape-and-reel (TR) packaging enabling automated pick-and-place SMT placement, reducing assembly cycle time in high-volume production environments

What is SFM-134-02-FM-D-LC-TR used for?

The SAMTEC SFM-134-02-FM-D-LC-TR high-reliability socket strip is designed for dense board-to-board signal interconnects in FPGA carrier boards, high-speed networking modules, and industrial computing equipment. Its 68-position dual-row layout at 0.050" pitch supports FMC and custom mezzanine card standards where many parallel signal channels are required in a space-efficient package. This connector is commonly used in defence electronics, medical imaging systems, and test and measurement platforms requiring LCP housing stability and reliable SMT integration.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes SFM-134-02-FM-D-LC-TR suitable for FMC mezzanine board designs compared to 2.54 mm pitch alternatives?

The SFM-134-02-FM-D-LC-TR provides 68 signal positions at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, achieving roughly 4 times the contact density per unit length compared to 2.54 mm pitch connectors. This allows FMC-compliant mezzanine cards to route high parallel signal counts across a footprint of approximately 44.5 mm, enabling FPGA I/O-intensive applications such as software-defined radio and high-speed DAQ systems to fit within standard mezzanine form factors.

How does LCP housing in SFM-134-02-FM-D-LC-TR improve dimensional accuracy during multi-pass reflow soldering?

LCP (liquid crystal polymer) housing in SFM-134-02-FM-D-LC-TR maintains dimensional stability through reflow cycles at up to 260°C with moisture absorption below 0.02%, preventing housing warpage that could misalign the 68-position 1.27 mm pitch contact array. This is critical in multi-pass SMT reflow processes common in double-sided PCB production where thermal stress and moisture absorption in standard nylon or PBT housings can cause co-planarity failures.

How many mating cycles does SFM-134-02-FM-D-LC-TR support, and which SAMTEC header series mates with it?

The SFM-134-02-FM-D-LC-TR supports a minimum of 200 mating cycles, consistent with SAMTEC SFM series high-reliability socket strip specifications. It mates with SAMTEC TFM series headers and SFM series vertical or right-angle headers at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch in dual-row configurations, enabling board-to-board stacking heights from 3 mm to 20 mm depending on the mating header selection.
