Overview of Samtec IC Series Screw Mount DIP Sockets

The datasheet provides detailed specifications for Samtec’s IC Series Screw Mount DIP Sockets, known for their high reliability in demanding applications. The sockets feature a U.L. rated GF polyester body with precision machined lead sockets and mounting holes for secure attachment. The insulator material is black glass-filled polyester with a flammability rating of UL 94V-0, ensuring high standards of safety.

Key Specifications

These screw mount DIP sockets offer an insulation resistance of 5000 megohm at 500 VDC and operate over a wide temperature range from -55°C to +125°C. Their withstanding voltage is rated at 1000 VRMS at 60 Hz. Contacts are made from Beryllium Copper (BeCu), while shells are generally Brass, except for the K style, which uses Phosphor Bronze.

Plating options include gold over 50 microinches (µ”) Nickel or tin over 100 µ” Copper or 50 µ” Nickel. They deliver a continuous 1 Amp current rating per contact and feature contact resistance of 10 milliohms at a 200 milliamp current.

Design Options and Part Numbers

Lead styles include ~S, ~ZS for a 0.51mm (0.020″) diameter, ~A, ~ZA for 0.64mm (0.025″) diameter, and locking lead options. Additionally, the document mentions low insertion force (LIF) contacts and withdrawal and insertion forces, such as a standard 9 Oz average for insertion and 2.5 Oz average for withdrawal.

Detailed part numbers are listed correlating to row spacing, number of contacts, dimensions, and special features such as elevated contact versions (~ZE, ~ZH) and wire-wrap (~W, ~ZW). These sockets are available in multiple configurations including but not limited to IC-306, IC-308, and IC-314 to the IC-618, each signifying the number of contacts and dimensions. There are also gold-plated contacts (GG) and wire-wrap tail options mentioned alongside the standard tin (TT) version.

Note that certain sizes, styles, and options might be non-standard and non-returnable. Design and specifications may change, and the latest information is available at the Samtec website and through contacting their sales offices located worldwide.
