PGA socket press-fits into pc boards The Preci-DIP PGA socket has
compliant tail pins that enable the socket to press-fit into
plated-through-holes. The compliant pin design uses a hollow slotted tail
that conforms to the plated-through-hole, preventing damage. A series of
serrations forms a gas-tight connection with the tin plating of the
plated-through-hole. Compliant tail lengths come in two sizes for 0.060 to
0.100-in. or 0.090 to 0.130-in.-thick panels. The socket is available with
molded polyester insulators having grids up to 21 x 21. An ultra low-force
contact minimizes component insertion and extraction forces. (Part
