Multicomp Pro DIL IC Socket, 24 Way, 7.62mm Pitch

Multicomp Pro DIL IC Socket, 24 Way, 7.62mm Pitch is a 24-way dual in-line socket for installing and replacing 24-pin DIL integrated circuits, with a 7.62mm row pitch and 2.54mm (0.1 inch) pin pitch.

Overview

The Multicomp Pro DIL IC Socket provides a convenient way to install and replace 24-pin dual in-line (DIL) integrated circuits. It features tin-plated phosphor bronze contacts mounted on a PBT (Polybutylene Terephthalate) insulator. The socket uses turned pin contacts, which provide a gas-tight connection intended to minimise signal loss. With a standard 2.54mm (0.1 inch) pitch and a 7.62mm row pitch, it is compatible with a wide range of standard DIL IC packages, making it suitable for prototyping, testing, and final assembly.

Key Electrical Specifications

• Current rating: 1 A
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to +125°C
• Maximum contact resistance: 20 mΩ
• Minimum insulator resistance: 1000 MΩ
• Dielectric withstand voltage: 1000 VAC for one minute

Physical Dimensions

The socket measures 33 mm wide, 43 mm high, and 15 mm deep, with a weight of 2 g. Its compact dimensions and low profile make it suitable for high-density PCB layouts.

Materials

The phosphor bronze contacts offer spring properties and corrosion resistance, while the PBT insulator provides resistance to heat and chemicals.

Typical Applications

The socket is used in industrial control systems, measurement equipment, and automation hardware. It is also widely used in communications and networking equipment, such as routers, switches, and interface cards.
