36-6554-18

Sockets for ICs, Transistors

The 36-6554-18 application field and working principle are extremely important for those that utilize sockets for ICs and transistors. The 36-6554-18 is a 16-pin DIP socket that can fit two rows of eight pins. The 36-6554-18 is commonly used for Digital-to-Analog Converters (DACs) or High-Speed TTL Buffers.

The 36-6554-18 is designed specifically for 0.1” spaced, 0.7” pin connections. The 36-6554-18 features a gold sockets plated center contact and a zinc die cast housing for improved durability and signal transmission. The housing also helps prevent problems due to tarnishing or corrosion. The 36-6554-18 is open-frame design to accommodate larger size components.

The 36-6554-18 also features a host of innovative and reliable designs to ensure a stable connection. The spring-loaded contacts are designed to ensure a solid connection between the IC or transistor and the socket. The contacts reduce the possibility of shorting during insertion due to its inherently low contact resistance. This design also helps to reduce the possibility of contact misalignment or contact deformation.

The 36-6554-18 also features a built-in FFC (Flat Flexible Connector) or CFC (Cooperative Flexible Connector). This feature helps to reduce the need for external wiring as the connector provides the necessary connection from the socket to the other components. This eliminates the need for wiring and saves time. The CFC also allows for a higher data transmission rate, which improves the communication between the IC and the socket.

Other features of the 36-6554-18 include anti-vibration polarity pads, strain relief clips, ground insulation, and polarization grooves. The anti-vibration pads help to reduce the risk of shorting during insertion while the strain relief clip helps to reduce stress on the wire harness. The ground insulation helps to ensure a proper connection to ground while the polarization grooves help to ensure a higher connection rate and more reliable signal transmission.

The 36-6554-18 is an ideal solution for those that require a reliable and stable connection between their IC and socket. The built-in FFC and CFC help to reduce the need for additional wiring, while the spring-loaded contacts ensure a secure connection. The other features of the 36-6554-18, such as the anti-vibration pads, strain relief clips, ground insulation and polarization grooves help to reduce the possibility of shorting and misalignment. This makes the 36-6554-18 an ideal solution for those that require a reliable and stable connection.
