What are the key features of SMH-122-02-F-S-TR?

  • 44-position dual-row female socket in horizontal SMD configuration at .100" (2.54 mm) pitch for standard-pitch high-density board-to-board signal routing
  • Horizontal surface-mount orientation allows low-profile PCB-edge connector mating, saving vertical board height in space-constrained enclosures
  • Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging ensures consistent component orientation for automated pick-and-place assembly in high-volume SMT production environments

What is SMH-122-02-F-S-TR used for?

The SMH-122-02-F-S-TR is suited for horizontal surface-mount socket applications in embedded systems, industrial controllers, and development boards where standard .100" (2.54 mm) pitch dual-row headers require a low-profile SMD socket solution. Its 44-position female contact array supports dense signal interfacing between processor modules, expansion boards, and sensor arrays assembled on standard SMT production lines. The tape-and-reel format also makes this connector practical for automated high-volume manufacturing of communications and consumer electronics products.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pitch and position count does SMH-122-02-F-S-TR provide for board-to-board connections?

The SMH-122-02-F-S-TR uses .100" (2.54 mm) pitch in a dual-row layout with 22 positions per row, totaling 44 signal contacts. This standard pitch is compatible with common 2.54 mm male headers widely used in development boards, embedded modules, and industrial I/O expansion cards, making it straightforward to source mating connectors from multiple manufacturers.

How does the horizontal SMD orientation of SMH-122-02-F-S-TR benefit compact board assemblies?

The horizontal surface-mount orientation routes the mating direction parallel to the PCB surface rather than perpendicular to it, which reduces the total assembly height above the board to approximately 3 mm to 4 mm depending on the mating header. This is beneficial in flat enclosures or stacked board assemblies where vertical clearance is under 10 mm, such as in panel-mount industrial controllers and compact data acquisition modules.

Which automated assembly methods are compatible with SMH-122-02-F-S-TR and what advantages does tape-and-reel offer?

SMH-122-02-F-S-TR is supplied in tape-and-reel (TR) format, directly compatible with standard SMT pick-and-place feeders used in reflow soldering production lines. Tape-and-reel delivery ensures all 44-position connectors are consistently oriented during automated placement, eliminating manual loading errors and supporting throughput rates of hundreds of units per hour in high-volume PCB manufacturing environments.
