10-GHz sockets fit 256-pin BGA ICs

The SG-BGA-7121 and SG-BGA-7122 sockets are designed for 0.5-mm-pitch BGA 256-pin ICs. The sockets feature an 8-X-8-mm footprint and operate to 10 GHz with less than 1 dB insertion loss.

The sockets dissipate up to several watts without extra heat sinking and can handle up to 100 W with a custom heat sink. Contact resistance is typically 20 mΩ per pin, pin self-inductance is 0.11 nH, mutual inductance is 0.028 nH, capacitance to ground is 0.028 pF, and operating temperature range is –40° to 100°C.
