28 Pin Narrow IC Socket base adaptor is a 28 pin IC holder, which can be soldered directly onto the PCB with pins spaced at 0.1″(2.54 mm). 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 IC base is for a narrow IC.
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.
Use this IC base for easily plugging in and out ICs during prototyping. Also use this IC base to protect IC from damage due to heat while soldering by first soldering the base to the board and then plugging in the IC later.
IC bases are also useful if you want to reuse ICs without the need to desolder them each time.
Features:
- 28 pins.
- Molded notch for proper orientation.
- Easy to insert and remove ICs.
