IC SERIES SCREW MOUNT DIP SOCKETS

Category: Electronics, Samtec Inc, Sockets And Chip Carriers

Overview

The datasheet presents information on the IC SERIES of screw mount DIP (Dual In-line Package) sockets which are produced by Samtec. These sockets are engineered to offer the highest reliability for securing integrated circuits to a printed circuit board (PCB). The sockets are constructed from a U.L. rated GF (Glass Filled) polyester body and incorporate precision machined lead sockets to ensure dependable connections in rigorous applications.

Specifications

Types of Socket: The datasheet details the IC series of sockets, which are designed specifically for IC (Integrated Circuit) mounting on PCBs.

Insulator Material: The insulator is made of black glass-filled polyester with a UL 94V-0 flammability rating.

Electrical Characteristics: These DIP sockets offer an insulation resistance of 5000 megohms at 500 VDC and a temperature range from -55°C to +125°C. They can withstand voltages up to 1000 VRMS at 60 Hz.

Contact Components: The contacts are made from beryllium copper (BeCu), with the shell typically made from brass, while the style K variant uses phosphor bronze.

Plating Options: The contact plating is available in gold over 50 microinches of nickel or tin over 100 microinches of copper or 50 microinches of nickel.

Current & Resistance: The current rating is specified at continuous 1 AMP per contact with a contact resistance of 10 milliohms at 200 milliamp.

Mechanical Characteristics: The datasheet outlines the socket retention strength within the body (5 pounds) and lead size compatibility (0.015″ to 0.022″ in diameter).

Forces: Insertion and withdrawal forces are detailed for both standard and low insertion force (LIF) variants, with average standard insertion at approximately 9 ounces and withdrawal at 2.5 ounces. The LIF contacts have lower corresponding values.

Mounting and Part Numbers: Mounting options include a range of row spacings and numbers of contacts, accompanied by respective part numbers for each configuration. An example given is the IC-306 with 300 rows and 6 contacts.

Dimensions & Mounting Holes: Key dimensions, including length, width, and mounting hole specifications, are provided for each part number within the series.

Notice and Contact Information: The datasheet carries a disclaimer about the possibility of design, specification, and component changes without notice. It also includes Samtec’s contact information globally across multiple regions like the USA, Silicon Valley, Southern California, Latin America, Europe, Asia, and more.

Options and Variations

Certain sizes, styles, and options of the IC series screw mount DIP sockets are indicated as being non-standard and non-returnable. Consumers are encouraged to check for the availability of specific product variants.

Availability

Samtec suggests contacting their customer service for details on minimum order quantities and setup charges that may be applicable to certain socket configurations.
