Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions and what is the pitch of the SAMTEC SFM-137-02-H-D-A-K?
The SFM-137-02-H-D-A-K is a 74-position dual-row socket strip with a 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch. This configuration allows 74 individual signal or power connections in a compact surface-mount footprint, making it ideal for high-density board-to-board interfaces in space-constrained designs.
What mounting style does the SFM-137-02-H-D-A-K use, and why does it matter for PCB assembly?
The SFM-137-02-H-D-A-K uses surface-mount termination, which is compatible with standard SMT reflow soldering processes. This allows automated pick-and-place assembly, reducing labor costs and improving placement accuracy compared to through-hole alternatives, especially in high-volume production environments.
Which high-reliability applications is the SFM-137-02-H-D-A-K optimized for?
This 74-position, 0.050" pitch socket strip is optimized for high-reliability applications including avionics, military electronics, industrial control systems, and medical instrumentation where connection integrity must be maintained over thousands of mating cycles and across wide temperature ranges. Its gold-plated contacts and robust housing meet demanding environmental requirements.
How does the SFM-137-02-H-D-A-K compare to lower-density 0.100" pitch alternatives?
The SFM-137-02-H-D-A-K's 0.050" pitch delivers twice the pin density of 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch connectors in the same board footprint, enabling 74 connections where a standard pitch connector might accommodate only 37. This makes it the preferred choice when PCB real estate is limited but high pin count is required for parallel data buses or multi-channel signal routing.
