Transition Socket Specification
SOIC TRANSITION SOCKET
An SOIC transition socket and associated hardware is
shown in Figure 2.
FIGURE 2: SOIC TRANSITION SOCKET
There are two components of the SOIC transition
socket:
1. Adapter socket that connects to the PDIP device
adapter
2. SOIC header that is to be soldered down to the
target application
The following SOIC transition sockets have been dis-
continued:
• XLT08SO: One adapter socket and three 8-lead
SOIC headers
• XLT14SO: One adapter socket and three 14-lead
SOIC headers
• XLT18SO: One adapter socket and three 18-lead
SOIC headers
• XLT20SO1: One adapter socket and three
20-lead SOIC headers
• XLT28SO: One adapter socket and three 28-lead
SOIC headers
See the drawings in this section for layout dimensions.
XLT08SO (Discontinued – see XLT08SO-1 or
XLT08SN-1)
8-lead DIP to 0.050-inch Adapter Socket
8-lead SOIC Header
Note: The SOIC header is designed for SOIC
body width of 0.300-inch. The adapter
leads should be cut to fit the 0.150-inch
and 0.208-inch SOIC body widths.
