IC Socket (4+4)- Base 8 Pin

Description

IC Socket (4+4)- Base 8 Pin The IC Socket (4+4)‑ Base 8 Pin is an 8 pin IC holder, which can be soldered directly onto the PCB. The IC can be removed from this socket when required. The IC is placed on the socket at the time of use. This base acts as a removable IC holder. The socket is used when the IC is temperature sensitive and the heat from the soldering iron can damage the IC. This socket is used when working with a microcontroller IC and can be removed for programming. This is 8 Pin DIP IC Sockets. It is brand new and high quality.It has low contact resistor and is RoHS compliant. Features Standard 8‑pin DIP socket adapter for through‑hole soldering. Two rows of 4+4 contacts suitable for common IC packages. Molded orientation notch for correct IC placement. Easy IC insertion and removal without soldering. Compatible with 2.54 mm pitch PCB patterns. Specifications Parameter Value Pin Count 8 pins Contact Rows 2 (4+4) Pitch 2.54 mm Mount Type Through‑hole PCB Orientation Notch Yes Material Plastic body with metal contacts Typical Use Standard DIP ICs Applications: Prototyping and testing of DIP‑8 integrated circuits.
