Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the SFM-130-02-L-D are qualified based on identical electrical and core mechanical parameters: 60-position receptacle configuration, 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch, female socket contacts, surface mount solder termination, push-pull fastening, gold mating contact finish, 3.2A per contact current rating, and 250VAC voltage rating. All substitutes maintain the same operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), insulation material (LCP), flammability rating (UL94 V-0), and MSL 1 rating.

Substitutes differ only in optional mounting features:

• SFM-130-02-L-D-A: Includes Board Guide feature
• SFM-130-02-L-D-DS: Includes Mounting Flange and Mounting Hardware
• SFM-130-02-L-D-LC: Includes Board Lock feature

These feature variations do not affect electrical performance or core mechanical compatibility with mating connectors.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All four parts maintain identical electrical specifications and core mechanical compatibility. Selection between SFM-130-02-L-D and its substitutes depends on application-specific mounting requirements:

SFM-130-02-L-D is the base configuration without additional mounting features, suitable for applications with standard PCB mounting requirements and REACH Unaffected compliance status.

SFM-130-02-L-D-A adds a Board Guide feature for enhanced alignment during mating operations, maintaining REACH Unaffected status.

SFM-130-02-L-D-DS includes Mounting Flange and Mounting Hardware for mechanical retention and structural support. Note that this variant has REACH Affected status, requiring compliance verification for applications subject to REACH regulations.

SFM-130-02-L-D-LC incorporates a Board Lock feature for positive mechanical locking after mating, with REACH Unaffected status.

All parts are Active status with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, suitable for standard storage and handling conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SFM-130-02-L-D be directly replaced with SFM-130-02-L-D-A, SFM-130-02-L-D-DS, or SFM-130-02-L-D-LC?

A: Yes, from an electrical and core mechanical standpoint. All four parts share identical contact configurations, pitch, current and voltage ratings, and operating temperature ranges. Substitution is valid when the application does not require the specific mounting features of the alternative variants.

Q: What is the difference between the mounting features?

A: SFM-130-02-L-D-A provides a Board Guide for alignment assistance. SFM-130-02-L-D-DS includes a Mounting Flange with hardware for structural retention. SFM-130-02-L-D-LC features a Board Lock for positive mechanical engagement after mating. The base SFM-130-02-L-D has no additional mounting features.

Q: Does the REACH Affected status of SFM-130-02-L-D-DS affect compatibility?

A: REACH Affected status indicates regulatory compliance considerations but does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Applications subject to REACH regulations must verify compliance requirements independently.

Q: Are all substitutes available in the same packaging?

A: Yes, all four parts are supplied in Tube packaging.

Q: What are the mated stacking heights for these connectors?

A: All variants support identical mated stacking heights: 6.15mm, 6.30mm, 7.92mm, 8.08mm, 9.70mm, 9.86mm, 11.61mm, and 11.76mm.

Q: Can these receptacle connectors be used interchangeably with different plug configurations?

A: These receptacles are designed for the Tiger Eye™ SFM series. Compatibility with mating plugs is determined by the series designation and contact configuration, not by the specific receptacle variant suffix.
