240-1280-09-0602J

The 240-1280-09-0602J socket can be classified as an adapter in the sockets and ICs, transistors category. This type of socket provides a reliable means for securing chips and transistors to a circuit board. It is typically used in high-density printed circuit boards, enabling easy maintenance and replacement of parts.

A 240-1280-09-0602J socket features a five-pin configuration. Its external dimensions are 0.60”x0.20”x0.60 10° and is composed of a two-piece polycarbonate body, two layers of insulation, and an aluminum shield. All of these components provide for a secure connection while also advancing heat transfer between the chip and socket. The aluminum shield offers additional protection against electrostatic discharge (ESD) and electromagnetic interference (EMI).

The five-pin design of a 240-1280-09-0602J socket is suited for five-pin-configured chips and transistors. A compliant chip can be placed on top of the socket and makes contact with each of its five pins with the socket’s spring-loaded terminal contacts. Once secured, the chip established an electrical connection with the circuit board via its five pins. The socket\'s insulation helps ensure that all contact points are insulated from each other, thereby maintaining accurate connections.

The application field of a 240-1280-09-0602J socket is diverse, including its use in printed circuit boards for computers, communication, industrial, and automotive systems. The application of a 240-1280-09-0602J socket in a high-density printed circuit board consists of inserting the socket into a mounting hole, followed by aligning it in a specified position so that the compliant chip is able to make contact with the terminal contacts of the socket. Importantly, when a chip is in place, the socket provides a secure connection, a reliable pathway for electrical signals, and increases the longevity of the circuit board.

In summary, the 240-1280-09-0602J socket is an adapter which provides a secure connection to a five-pin-configured chip or transistor, and is typically used in high-density printed circuit boards. Its two-piece polycarbonate body, two layers of insulation, and an aluminum shield offer enhanced protection from ESD and EMI. Additionally, the socket facilitates the electrical connections to the chip, thereby allowing for a reliable pathway for electrical signals. The socket is relatively easy to maintain and replace, which makes it a viable choice in a variety of applications.
