Key Features
- 94 positions dual-row at 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch for high-density board-to-board signal routing
- Surface-mount termination enables automated SMT assembly and eliminates through-hole drilling
- High-reliability socket strip construction rated for demanding mating cycle requirements in defense and telecom
- Low-profile design reduces board-to-board stack height compared to 2.54 mm pitch alternatives
Applications
The SFM-147-02-L-D-A is used in high-density board-to-board stacking assemblies for telecommunications line cards, defense electronics modules, and high-performance computing backplanes. Its 94-position dual-row layout at 0.050" pitch allows dense signal routing across mated boards in rack-mount and compact embedded systems. Surface-mount construction enables placement by pick-and-place machines in high-volume SMT production lines.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the pin count and pitch of the SAMTEC SFM-147-02-L-D-A socket strip?
The SFM-147-02-L-D-A provides 94 total positions arranged in a dual-row configuration with 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch. This fine pitch allows nearly double the signal density per linear inch compared to standard 2.54 mm pitch connectors, supporting high-bandwidth board-to-board interfaces in compact designs.
How does surface-mount termination of the SFM-147-02-L-D-A benefit high-volume PCB manufacturing?
The SMT termination style allows automated pick-and-place and reflow soldering without through-hole drilling or wave solder fixtures. This reduces PCB fabrication cost for 94-pin connections, shortens assembly cycle time, and improves co-planarity control across the dual-row solder joints in volume production.
In which high-reliability applications is the SAMTEC SFM-147-02-L-D-A typically deployed?
This connector is used in defense subsystem modules, telecom line cards, and aerospace electronics where 94-circuit board-to-board connectivity must withstand repeated mating cycles and vibration. The high-reliability socket strip rating ensures stable contact resistance across temperature ranges typical of military and industrial grade electronics.
How does the 0.050" pitch of the SFM-147-02-L-D-A compare with standard 0.100" pitch connectors for PCB space savings?
At 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch, the SFM-147-02-L-D-A occupies roughly half the linear board length of an equivalent 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch connector for the same 94 circuits. This halved footprint is critical in rack-mount telecom and aerospace assemblies where board area is a constrained resource.
