IC Socket (8+8)- Base 16 pin

From the shop's description

IC Socket (8+8)- Base 16 pin is a high-quality electronic component designed for Arduino, prototyping, and educational electronics. Overview 16 Pin IC Socket base adaptor is an 16 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 16 Pin DIP IC Sockets. It is brand new and high quality.It has low contact resistor and is RoHS compliant. Specifications Pin Material : Copper Alloy Pin Pitch : 2.54mm Pin Qty : 16 Package : DIP It’s perfect for DIY makers, students, and anyone building custom electronic circuits or STEM kits.
