SAMTEC High Reliability IC Series Screw Mount DIP Sockets – Datasheet

Category: Electronics, Samtec Inc, Sockets And Chip Carriers

Overview

The datasheet outlines the technical specifications, options, and design attributes of the IC Series Screw Mount DIP Sockets provided by Samtec. These sockets are designed for demanding applications that require high reliability. The contents reflect important features such as types of sockets, lead styles, materials used, plating options, and the availability of low insertion force (LIF) contacts.

Product Details

The sockets, identified by part numbers such as IC-308-SGT and IC-422-ZHGG, are equipped with a U.L. rated black glass filled polyester body that can endure a wide range of operating temperatures, from -55°C to +125°C. The contacts are made from beryllium copper (BeCu) with an optional shell of brass or phosphor bronze, depending on the style.

Specifications

In terms of electrical properties, these sockets have an insulation resistance of 5000 megohms at 500 VDC and can withstand 1000 VRMS at 60 Hz. Their contact resistance is designed to be low at 10 milliohms at a 200 milliamp current rating and are capable of continuous operations at 1 Amp per contact. The body retention is secured with a 5-pound force against the barb.

Mechanical Properties and Options

Users can expect standard insertion and withdrawal forces, with specified average and minimum/maximum values. Low Insertion Force models provide a gentler engagement. A range of lead sizes is supported, accommodating lead diameters from .015″ to .022″. Additionally, options for lead style include wire-wrap and elevated leads. The plating options feature gold or tin contacts, with corresponding shell finishes, enhancing the contact quality and longevity.

Part Numbers and Sizes

The datasheet includes detailed part number configurations correlating with a table of dimensions and corresponding row and contact count, such as IC-306 for a 300-row with 6 contacts to IC-424 for a 400-row with 24 contacts. Important notes on customization, non-standard options, and return policies are also highlighted.
