Samtec SEAF Series Straight Surface PCB Socket 160-Contact 8 Row 1.27mm Pitch Solder SEAF-20-05.0-S-08-2-A-K-TR

Samtec SEAF-20-05.0-S-08-2-A-K-TR is a Straight Surface PCB Socket designed for demanding electronic applications requiring high density and high speed board-to-board connections. It features 160 female contacts arranged in 8 rows with a 1.27 mm pitch, making it ideal for compact, high-performance electronic assemblies where reliability and signal integrity are paramount.

The housing is made from Liquid Crystal Polymer, offering excellent mechanical strength, thermal stability, and chemical resistance. This connector is mounted via surface solder termination to ensure robust installation on printed circuit boards.

Rated for 240 volts and 2.3 amperes, the socket ensures safe operation under typical electrical loads encountered in industrial, laboratory, telecommunications, and computing applications. The stacking height of 18.5 mm supports versatile board stacking configurations.

Using Samtec's SEARAY™ technology, this socket supports frequency performance up to 12.5 GHz at -3 dB, suitable for high-speed data transmission applications. The contact system utilizes 0.76 µm gold plating on the contact areas with matte tin on the tails for longevity and superior conductivity. Contact resistance is rated at 5.5 mΩ, providing consistent electrical performance.

The device operates reliably across a broad temperature range from -55°C to 125°C, making it suitable for harsh environments. The straight orientation and 2.5 mm row pitch help maintain precise mating alignment, simplifying installation and ensuring consistent contact.
