{"product_id":"plcc44-smd-ic-44-pin-socket","title":"PLCC44 SMD IC 44 Pin Socket","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe PLCC44 SMD IC 44 Pin Socket is a surface-mount socket designed to accept PLCC (Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier) packages with 44 pins. It provides a removable mounting option for PLCC44 integrated circuits, allowing easy insertion and extraction without repeated soldering and desoldering of the IC itself. This socket is useful in development, testing, prototyping, repair, and production environments where IC replacement or reprogramming may be required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEngineered for PCB integration, the socket fits a standard PLCC44 footprint and is intended for reflow or hand-solder assembly processes compatible with SMD components. By holding the PLCC44 device securely, the socket helps preserve the original IC from thermal and mechanical stress during assembly and servicing. The retention mechanism ensures reliable contact between the IC leads and the socket contacts under normal operating conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey advantages include simplified device replacement, reduced risk of damage to expensive or sensitive ICs, and faster turnaround for board-level diagnostics and firmware updates. The socket supports reliable electrical connection for signals, power, and ground paths associated with a PLCC44 device and can be integrated into single- or multi-board designs where removable IC access is desirable. For proper use, match the socket to the PLCC44 package orientation and follow standard PCB layout and soldering guidelines to ensure mechanical stability and optimal contact performance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Electronic Service Center","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45149765140663,"sku":null,"price":5.0,"currency_code":"LYD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0639\/4010\/0279\/files\/IMG-5882.png?v=1754593849","url":"https:\/\/esclibya.com\/products\/plcc44-smd-ic-44-pin-socket","provider":"Electronic Service Center","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
