IC socket 64QN40S18080

The 64QN40S18080 test socket, manufactured by Plastronics, is a precision-engineered solution tailored for QFN64 packages.

Designed to accommodate packages with dimensions of 8mm by 8mm and a height of 0.85mm, this socket is built to handle the unique requirements of semiconductor testing. It supports 64-pins QFN packages with a pitch of 0.4mm, ensuring accurate alignment and reliable contact during testing.

Featuring a Clam-Shell design, this socket ensures a secure and stable connection during testing and higher variability of package thickness acceptance. Its hinged mechanism allows for effortless manual operation, making it ideal for frequent device insertion and removal. Its robust construction is available in a through hole configuration, solder-mounted on the PCB.

IC socket QFN 64QN40S18080 is equipped with a ground pin, which serves a critical role in enhancing signal integrity and mitigating electrical interference during testing. Ground pins are commonly used to provide a low-impedance path to ground, ensuring stable signal reference points and reducing noise that may impact testing accuracy. By maintaining a reliable ground connection, the socket delivers improved performance, particularly for high-frequency and sensitive applications.

Engineered for longevity, it guarantees at least 5000 actuations (Opening and closing the lid counts as one actuation), and standard operational temperature range.
