Socket Accessories

Socket accessories are components that are used in conjunction with sockets for ICs (integrated circuits) and transistors. These accessories include a wide variety of different items, such as mounting hardware, test probes, and extraction tools. They are used to enhance the performance and reliability of sockets in a variety of applications. Sockets for ICs and transistors are electrical components that are used to hold and make electrical connections to ICs and transistors. These sockets are typically mounted on a PCB (printed circuit board) or other type of electrical component, and they have a set of pins or contacts that are designed to mate with the leads or pads on the IC or transistor. Sockets for ICs and transistors are essential components in many electronic systems, as they provide a reliable and convenient way to connect ICs and transistors to the circuit. Socket accessories are typically used to protect the sockets and their contacts from damage and contamination. For example, mounting hardware is used to secure the sockets to the PCB or component, while test probes are used to test the electrical connections on the sockets. Extraction tools are used to safely remove the IC or transistor from the socket without damaging the leads or pads. These accessories help to ensure that sockets for ICs and transistors function reliably in a wide range of applications.
