Zero-Insertion-Force DIP Test Socket – Series 516

FEATURES

  • A choice of 24-, 28-, or 40-pin count devices can be inserted without bending
    or otherwise damaging the legs, since no force is required to either insert or
    remove the component from the ZIF DIP test socket
  • Contacts are normally open and are closed by a unique cam action controlled
    by dual lever arms
  • The last 15° of movement of the cam provides a wiping action to the
    contacts on the legs of the device to remove any residue, ensuring a gas-tight
    seal
  • Tapered entry helps guide the device legs into the mating position with
    the contacts
