What are the key features of SMS-101-02-TM-D?
- 2-position dual-row through-hole micro socket with turned-metal (TM) contacts at 0.050" x 0.100" pitch for superior contact engagement reliability
- Turned-metal contact construction provides tighter dimensional tolerances than stamped contacts, resulting in lower and more consistent contact resistance across mating cycles
- Through-hole termination delivers robust solder-joint retention, ideal for 2-position sockets subject to repeated plug-and-play operations
What is SMS-101-02-TM-D used for?
The SMS-101-02-TM-D is used in precision signal interface applications where 2 positions at 0.050 x 0.100 inch pitch require the dimensional accuracy of turned-metal contacts, such as calibration module sockets, JTAG debug connectors, and precision measurement instrument inputs. Its through-hole mounting provides the mechanical stability needed in laboratory or industrial instruments subject to connector cycling across temperature ranges from -55°C to +125°C.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the turned-metal contact design of SMS-101-02-TM-D differ from standard stamped contacts?
Turned-metal (TM) contacts are machined from rod stock on a lathe, producing tighter dimensional tolerances than stamped sheet metal contacts. For the 2-position SMS-101-02-TM-D, this results in more consistent contact engagement forces, contact resistance values typically below 10 milliohms, and improved resistance to deformation across repeated insertion cycles compared to stamped alternatives.
What signal or power levels is SMS-101-02-TM-D rated to carry through its 2 positions?
The 2-position SMS-101-02-TM-D is rated for low-voltage signal levels typical of digital and analog interface circuits. At 0.050 inch pitch with turned-metal contacts, the socket handles signal currents up to approximately 1 A per position, making it suitable for logic-level signals, sensor outputs, and low-power supply lines in embedded systems operating at 3.3 V or 5 V.
Is SMS-101-02-TM-D interchangeable with SMS-101-02-F-D in an existing PCB footprint?
Both SMS-101-02-TM-D and SMS-101-02-F-D share the same 2-position dual-row through-hole layout at 0.050 x 0.100 inch pitch, so they are pin-compatible and occupy the same PCB footprint. The key difference is the contact type: the TM variant uses turned-metal contacts for tighter tolerances and lower contact resistance, while the F variant uses a different contact style, allowing engineers to swap between them based on cycle-life and resistance requirements without PCB changes.
