Frequently Asked Questions
What contact plating specification does the SMS-108-01-S-D use, and why does it matter for connector reliability?
The SMS-108-01-S-D uses 30 µin gold over 50 µin nickel contact finish, providing excellent corrosion resistance and low contact resistance over thousands of mating cycles. This plating specification is critical for signal integrity in high-cycle applications such as test fixtures and field-replaceable PCB modules where reliable 8-position dual-row connectivity is required.
How does the SMS-108-01-S-D body size compare to other SAMTEC socket connectors for compact PCB designs?
The SMS-108-01-S-D has a body measuring 0.4 inch long by 0.335 inch deep with 0.22 inch breadth, making it suitable for compact board-to-board stacking in densely populated PCBs. Its 8-position dual-row layout provides 16 total contact points within this small footprint, offering a high contact density per unit area compared to single-row socket alternatives.
What is the typical lead time for the SMS-108-01-S-D and is it suitable for production procurement?
The SMS-108-01-S-D carries SAMTEC's Tiger Buy designation with a 1-week factory lead time, making it one of the fastest-available connector options in SAMTEC's catalog. This short lead time is advantageous for production runs and rapid prototyping schedules where 8-position dual-row board socket availability directly impacts manufacturing throughput and time-to-market.
In which high-reliability or industrial applications is the SMS-108-01-S-D most commonly deployed?
The SMS-108-01-S-D is commonly deployed in industrial automation daughterboards, embedded computing module stacking, and test and measurement instrument PCBs requiring reliable 8-position dual-row socket interconnections. Its gold-over-nickel 30 µin plating and RoHS-compliant body support demanding environments with temperature cycling, vibration, and repeated mating where standard connectors would fail prematurely.
