Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions and what pitch does the SFM-136-02-FM-D-A-K socket strip provide?
The SFM-136-02-FM-D-A-K provides 72 positions in a dual-row layout with a 1.27 mm (0.050 inch) pitch. This configuration delivers 72 signal or power contacts in a PCB footprint approximately 46 mm long, significantly more compact than equivalent 2.54 mm pitch connectors.
What contact plating does the SFM-136-02-FM-D-A-K use and how does it affect connector longevity?
The SFM-136-02-FM-D-A-K uses gold-plated contacts, which maintain low contact resistance below 20 milliohms across more than 500 mating cycles. Gold plating prevents oxidation and corrosion, making this socket strip suitable for high-reliability aerospace, defense, and medical equipment applications.
Which header series mates with the SFM-136-02-FM-D-A-K for mezzanine stacking applications?
The SFM-136-02-FM-D-A-K mates with SAMTEC TSM-136 series terminal strip headers at the same 1.27 mm pitch with 72 positions. Mated stack heights typically range from 4 mm to 20 mm depending on the TSM header variant selected, accommodating various mezzanine module clearance requirements.
