PLCC ZIF sockets for flat-pack ceramic packages

23 May 2001 Interconnection

Aries offers an enhanced version of its PLCC Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) test and burn-in socket, which accepts both flat-pack ceramic and plastic packages. The Series 536 PLCC ZIF Test Socket makes intimate contact with pins in the socket body, without damage to the ceramic or plastic packages.

The socket features a latched 'clamshell' design with male solder-tail pins projecting from the bottom that can be soldered into a PCB or plugged into an Aries adapter socket. These pins are gold-plated beryllium copper contacts that form a bed on the bottom half of the clamshell. The socket is available in standard pin counts of 20, 28, 32, 44, 52, 68, and 84 pins.

In addition to the standard product, custom materials, plating, sizes and configurations can be substituted to meet customers' requirements. The PLCC ZIF socket is compatible with pick and place operations; corner posts provide positive package registration.
