Sockets for ICs, Transistors

510-87-241-18-072101 application field and working principle can be broadly classified in the category of sockets for ICs, transistors and similar semiconductor devices. A socket is a physical interface which provides a temporary power supply to the integrated circuits and other semiconductor devices during testing, troubleshooting, programming and during the process while the Socket is being soldered on the printed circuit board.

Scope of Application

Sockets for ICs, transistors are used in development, prototyping and production of various electronic products including mobile phones, radio, televisions, laptops, personal computers, calculators, digital cameras, compact disc players and DVD players. Apart from the provided power sockets and connections, the various types of sockets are designed for electrical signals and the ability to be used in extreme temperature and other harsh environments.

Advantages

Sockets for ICs’, transistors, and other semiconductor devices have certain advantages over soldering directly onto the printed circuit board. Since ICs provide a general increase in the circuit performance, it is convenient to avoid soldering to avoid the temperature variations associated with direct soldering. Additionally, it is easier and faster to replace whole ICs or entire components by simply re-inserting the same type of ICs in the socket.In addition, sockets for ICs, transistors are designed to provide adequate heat dissipation by shielding the device from the heat generated, thus stimulating the rate of power management. Additionally, the socket provides electrical insulation for the device, thus minimizing the risk of electric shock or device shorting. Furthermore, since they allow for the re-use of permanent integrated circuits and connections on the printed circuit board, the total cost of production of the product is greatly reduced.

Types of socket

Sockets for ICs, transistors and other semiconductor devices vary in terms of form factor, number of pins, and material of construction. Generally, they are designed into one of two common form factors: • ZIF (Zero insertion force): ZIF sockets are designed into a ‘zero insertion’ force form factor from which the ICs can be easily inserted. This type of socket requires the ICs to be tilted to a certain angle to allow for easy insertion.• PGA (Pin Grid Array): PGA sockets are designed with a single-row or double-row pin configuration. These types of socket also require small slits in the middle to allow for the easy insertion of the ICs.The materials used for the design of sockets for ICs, transistors and similar semiconductor devices is important to consider due to the temperature, vibration, power and electrical safety issues related to its use. Generally, IC sockets are made of thermoplastics and thermoplastic elastomers, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), nylon, polyamide, or polyetherimide as these materials are capable of withstanding high temperature.

Working Principle

The working principle of sockets for ICs, transistors and similar semiconductor devices is quite simple; when the ICs are inserted into the socket, it creates an electrical connection between the metal contacts on the ICs and the metal contacts on the socket. Once the electrical connection is made, the ICs are connected to the power source and can draw stored power.The sockets also offer a certain degree of electrical insulation between the device and the printed circuit board, thus protecting the device from thermal variations and electric shocks.In conclusion, sockets for ICs, transistors and similar semiconductor devices are necessary to ensure the safety and reliability of the entire electronic circuit. With the various types and features available, it is important to select the right socket for the particular application in order to ensure the safe operation of the device.
