IC SOCKET Base 24 Pin DIP – Wide

The IC SOCKET Base 24 Pin DIP – Wide is a high-quality, reinforced integrated circuit socket designed for applications that require additional spacing and mechanical stability when mounting wide-body DIP ICs. Engineered for electronics engineers, technicians, educators, and development specialists, this socket ensures secure, precise, and long-lasting connectivity between the integrated circuit and the printed circuit board. The IC SOCKET Base 24 Pin DIP – Wide is widely used in prototyping, repair operations, educational labs, and production boards where frequent IC replacement is required.

This socket features expanded body spacing to accommodate ICs with wider packages while maintaining the standard 2.54mm pin pitch. Its robust design allows for repeated insertions and removals without degrading electrical contact quality. The plated contacts provide excellent conductivity, low resistance, and strong mechanical retention, ensuring stable and reliable signal transfer even in demanding electronic environments.

The IC SOCKET Base 24 Pin DIP – Wide is particularly beneficial when working with analog ICs, microcontrollers, programmable memory devices, and mixed-signal components that require additional width due to internal complexity. Its durable thermoplastic housing resists heat, chemical exposure, and physical deformation, making it ideal for both professional and educational applications.
