Frequently Asked Questions

What contact finish and material does the SMH-106-02-L-S-TR use, and how does this affect solderability?

The SMH-106-02-L-S-TR uses phosphor bronze contacts with a tin (Sn) finish over a nickel (Ni) barrier. This combination provides excellent solderability for standard SMT reflow processes and corrosion resistance suited to industrial environments over a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

How does the horizontal orientation of the SMH-106-02-L-S-TR affect board stacking height in embedded designs?

The horizontal surface mount orientation of the SMH-106-02-L-S-TR reduces vertical board clearance requirements compared to vertical connectors, with a body depth of 0.47 inch and body length of 0.62 inch. This makes it well suited for low-profile 12-pin daughter card and sensor module connections where PCB height is constrained.

What does the Tiger Buy designation on the SMH-106-02-L-S-TR mean for procurement lead times?

The Tiger Buy classification indicates this 12-position SAMTEC socket strip is stocked in high volume, typically allowing shorter lead times and lower MOQ commitments. Procurement teams can often expect faster delivery compared to standard-catalog connectors, reducing supply chain risk for production builds using this .100" pitch SMT socket.
