Frequently Asked Questions
What contact finish does the SFMC-106-02-L-D use and how does it affect reliability?
The SFMC-106-02-L-D uses 10 µin gold over 50 µin nickel contact finish on the mating surfaces. Gold plating provides excellent corrosion resistance and low contact resistance, while the nickel underplating adds hardness and diffusion barrier protection. This combination ensures reliable electrical performance across multiple mating cycles and diverse environmental conditions.
What is the Tiger Eye contact feature in the SFMC-106-02-L-D and why does it matter for signal integrity?
Tiger Eye is SAMTEC's proprietary contact technology that provides a dual-beam wiping action during mating, creating two contact points per pin to minimize contact resistance and improve signal integrity. This feature reduces the risk of intermittent connections in high-vibration environments and enhances reliability for high-frequency signals, making it ideal for data rates above 1 GHz in telecommunications and computing applications.
How compact is the SFMC-106-02-L-D footprint and what PCB layouts does it support?
The SFMC-106-02-L-D body measures 0.315" in length, 0.12" in breadth, and 0.18" in depth, occupying a very compact PCB footprint. Its 0.050" (1.27 mm) pitch dual-row layout supports 12 positions in a minimal area, making it compatible with fine-pitch SMT board designs where board real estate is limited to less than 1 square inch.
What is the typical lead time for SFMC-106-02-L-D and where can I source it?
The SFMC-106-02-L-D has a factory lead time of approximately 4 weeks and 1 day from SAMTEC. It is available through authorized global distributors including major electronics component suppliers. RoHS-compliant stock may be available for immediate delivery from distributor inventory, reducing project lead times for volume orders of 100 or more pieces.
