Elastomer socket suits high-speed ICs

Constructed with high-performance, low-inductance gold-plated embedded wire on elastomer, the 0.65-pitch SG-BGA-7199 BGA socket verifies IC function in a development system with specific temperature. The socket is designed for 0.65-mm-pitch 176-ball BGAs in a 13.5 x 8 x 1.2-mm package size, requires no soldering, and operates at bandwidths to 10 GHz with ≤1-dB insertion loss, with typical contact resistance of 20 mΩ per I/O.

Operating temperature range is –35° to 100°C. Current capacity is 2 A per pin, with a 0.15-nH pin self-inductance, 0.025-nH mutual inductance, and 0.01-pF capacitance to ground. (From $514 each — available now.)
