Series X55X High-Temperature Universal
Zero-Insertion-Force DIP Test Socket
FEATURES
• Universal Test Socket accepts devices on 0.300 to 0.600 [7.62 to 15.24] centers
• All pin count sockets go into PCB with either 0.300 or 0.600 [7.62 or 15.24] centers
• Contacts are normally closed to eliminate dependence on plastic to sustain contact
• Socket handle can be configured with closed contacts (on) when in the UP or DOWN
position, and can be mounted on either the right or left side

MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS
Row-to-Row Spacing (btm)
3 = 0.300 [7.62]
6 = 0.600 [15.24] (std)
1 = Left, up is on
• See Socket Footprint below
2 = Right, up is on
3 = Left, down is on
4 = Right, down is on (std)
NOTE: ‘on’ = closed contacts
ALL DIMENSIONS: INCHES [MILLIMETERS]
ALL TOLERANCES: 0.005 [0.13] UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED
“A” = (NO. OF PINS PER ROW x 0.100 [2.54]) + 0.590 [14.99]
“B” = (NO. OF PINS PER ROW -1) x 0.100 [2.54]
“C” = (NO. OF PINS PER ROW x 0.100 [2.54] + 0.415 [10.54]
DO NOT USE THESE SOCKETS IN A BURN-IN OVEN WITH THE
SOCKET CONTACTS IN THE OPEN POSITION, AS IT WILL DAMAGE
THE SOCKET.
