What are the key features of SMS-104-02-S-D?

  • 8-position through-hole micro socket with 0.050" x 0.100" dual pitch for dense PCB layouts
  • Gold (30 µin) over Nickel (50 µin) contact finish for low contact resistance and long mating life
  • Tiger Buy contact designation ensures priority stock availability for high-volume procurement

What is SMS-104-02-S-D used for?

The SMS-104-02-S-D micro socket is well suited for high-density board-to-board interconnect in industrial test equipment and embedded computing modules where 0.050" pitch enables compact 8-contact signal routing. Its through-hole mounting provides robust mechanical retention in applications subject to vibration or repeated mating cycles. The gold-plated contacts support reliable signal integrity in data acquisition systems, backplane connections, and prototype development boards.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pitch and body dimensions does the SMS-104-02-S-D use, and how does that affect PCB layout density?

The SMS-104-02-S-D features a dual 0.050" x 0.100" pitch across 8 positions, with a body depth of 0.335 inch and body length of 0.2 inch. This compact footprint allows designers to place multiple connectors in tight PCB zones without violating keep-out areas, making it suitable for high-density signal routing in embedded systems and test fixtures.

How does the gold-over-nickel contact plating on SMS-104-02-S-D compare to standard tin-plated sockets for durability?

The SMS-104-02-S-D uses 30 µin gold over 50 µin nickel contact plating, which provides significantly lower contact resistance and higher mating cycle durability compared to standard matte tin finishes. Gold plating resists oxidation and maintains stable electrical performance over hundreds of mating cycles, making this socket preferred for test and measurement sockets or connectors requiring long service life.

Which industrial applications benefit most from the SMS-104-02-S-D through-hole micro socket?

The SMS-104-02-S-D is ideal for industrial data acquisition systems, backplane interconnects, and prototype development boards that require a robust 8-pin through-hole connection at 0.050" x 0.100" pitch. Through-hole mounting provides superior pull-out strength compared to surface-mount alternatives, offering at least 2 lbf retention in vibration-prone environments such as industrial controllers and ruggedized embedded computing assemblies.

Is the SMS-104-02-S-D RoHS compliant, and what lead-free finish options are available?

Yes, the SMS-104-02-S-D carries a RoHS-compliant Pb-free designation, confirmed by the Pbfree Code: Yes specification. The gold (30 µin) over nickel (50 µin) contact finish is applied without lead-based solder, supporting WEEE and RoHS directives for global distribution and use in environmentally regulated markets including Europe, China, and Japan.
