Sockets for ICs, Transistors are electronic components used to connect or interface to the circuitry of an electrical device. Single-inline-package sockets, or SIP sockets, are the most commonly used type of socket and feature a row of electrical contacts on either side of the socket. They’re used to house components such as dual in-line integrated circuits (ICs), transistors, resistors, diodes, or other discrete components. Their compact form factor makes them a great choice for densely populated circuit boards.

The 18-6501-21 socket is a SIP socket designed for the connection of ICs, transistors, and other components in either surface-mount or through hole-mount configurations. This socket features a simple, yet durable design, constructed with a molded plastic base and an integral stamped pin contacts. It offers an electrical connection to 6-pin ICs, transistors, or other components, with a 15-pin .100” pitch. The molded-in mounting lugs provide secure mounting in either surface-mount or through hole applications.

The 18-6501-21 features a sturdy, compact design that makes it perfect for a variety of applications, from consumer electronics to automotive and telecom. Thanks to its dual-configuration design, it’s easy to change or upgrade the sockets in existing applications. The socket also supports 6-pin ICs in various sizes and shapes, allowing for the highest level of flexibility.

In terms of performance, the 18-6501-21 socket has excellent electronic characteristics. It’s capable of withstanding up to 5.1A of current for an extended period of time, with a maximum voltage rating of 30V DC. The secure grip of the contacts prevents component damage, even when placed in high-vibration environments. The socket is also compliant with RoHS requirements, making it an environmentally-friendly option for a range of applications.

The 18-6501-21 socket is a versatile, reliable, and cost-effective solution for connecting ICs, transistors, or other components in a variety of applications. It’s easy to install and provides superior electrical and mechanical performance, making it an ideal choice for both consumer and industrial applications.
