Machine Pin DIL Socket

ATKCONN machine pin sockets which offers a full range of exceptional quality, highly reliable DIP package sockets, including different way through hole turned pin DIP socket, also known as DIL socket. ATKconn has designed these sockets to feature solid precision turned sleeves with a closed bottom design eliminating flux intrusion and solder wicking during soldering. Constructed with a stamped spring copper insert, this provides an excellent connection and allows repeated insertion and withdrawals. With Gold plated inner contact and tin-plated outer sleeve this socket is a Hi-Temp insulator for Hi-Temp soldering processes of up 260°C. Our insulators are molded of UL94V-0 high temp thermoplastic.

Features and Benefits:
• These IC sockets have been designed with high-pressure contacts
• custom number way through pin sockets have precision stamped internal spring contacts in order to give an excellent connection and make it more durable for repeated usage
• Anti-Solder wicking design to make your experience with these IC sockets easy whilst removing flux intrusion and protecting any delicate components underneath
• Machine insertable making these Connectors suitable for production line work
• Dual row components remove the limitation of IC sockets by taking away the restriction of the number of leads available
• Molded from high temp thermoplastic to give an extra layer of protection to this component

What is a DIL socket?
A DIL socket, also known as a DIP socket, means a dual in line package which is an electronic component with two parallel rows of pins that can be through-hole mounted to a printed circuit board or inserted directly into a socket.

DIL Sockets Overview

DIL sockets (dual in-line sockets) are integrated circuit components used in almost all modern electronic devices. They have two parallel rows of pins set in a rectangular housing. The sockets have different numbers of pins to match the target integrated circuit. DIL sockets are embedded in a broad range of applications for end uses such as MRI machines and lifts.


Types of DIL sockets
The pin contacts that form the electrical connections consist of two main types: turned pin and dual leaf. Turned pin DIL sockets have a tapered entry and allow four points of contact. They offer a more reliable electrical connection as they can tolerate higher voltages and currents. Dual leaf sockets have a simpler design for automatic machine insertion.


Choosing the right DIL socket
DIL sockets can be through-hole mounted to a printed circuit board or inserted in a socket. Through-hole is the mounting technique in which the leads are inserted through holes in the circuit board and soldered from beneath. Sockets allow easy replacement and also reduce the risk of overheating which can happen during soldering.
