Ironwood Electronics has extended its embedded gold plated wire elastomer (SG) socket line with SG15 and SG25 versions that provides up to 40 GHz bandwidth in a small, cost effective ZIF socket for prototype and test applications. The SG15 & SG25 sockets are available in a small footprint that is only 2.5mm larger than the IC per side. The contactor has a cycle life of 2000 insertions and a temperature range of -35C to +100C. It can be used for applications with bandwidth up to 40 GHz and current carrying capacity of 2 amps per pin. The socket provides heat sinking up to several watts with custom heat sinks available for higher power dissipation. |
