## Description

8-pin DIP socket for fast and secure mounting of integrated circuits on PCB, allows IC replacement without resoldering and protects the component from heat during soldering. It has a 2.54mm pitch for wide compatibility, 5.1mm PCB height for easy access, 0.6mm PCB holes and supports a maximum current of 1A.
Socket for mounting an integrated circuit (IC) with 8 pins. Using the socket on the PCB has the advantage of allowing the IC to be changed when necessary and, by using it, the risk of damaging the integrated circuit due to the heat resulting from direct soldering is avoided.
