Winslow 2.54 mm Pitch Vertical 28 Way Through Hole Turned Pin Open Frame DIL Socket, 5A W30528TRC

The Winslow W30528TRC is a vertical 28-way through hole Dual In-Line (DIL) socket designed to facilitate reliable and non-permanent connection of integrated circuits within electronic assemblies. Engineered for high mechanical and electrical performance, this socket utilizes a 2.54 mm pitch and robust turned pins to provide optimal contact integrity and efficient signal transmission.

With gold and tin-plated contacts, the socket ensures enhanced conductivity and corrosion resistance. The contacts feature a beryllium-copper alloy inner finger plated with gold over nickel alongside a tin-plated brass shell, supporting up to 1000 insertions for durable operation in both prototyping and production environments. Its open frame design not only simplifies inspection and debugging but also aids efficient heat dissipation during electronic development.

Rated for a maximum current of 5A, the W30528TRC socket is suitable for a wide range of ICs requiring dependable electrical connectivity. The through hole mounting method guarantees stable and vibration-resistant installation on printed circuit boards. Solder termination is provided, facilitating secure long-term fixture and compatibility with standard PCB layouts.

The component operates across a broad temperature range from -65°C to 150°C, making it suitable for harsh environments typical in industrial, laboratory, and commercial electronics applications. Its housing is constructed from polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), offering both strength and high thermal stability.

Measuring 35.48 mm in length, 17.66 mm in depth, and 4.6 mm in width, with a row width of 15.24 mm, the socket fits standard DIP footprints. It is oriented vertically for easy circuit board integration and use. The product accommodates rapid development and prototype testing, allowing debugging before permanent soldering, making it invaluable for R&D, manufacturing, and field maintenance.

This DIL Socket is widely used in industrial control boards, laboratory test rigs, custom electronics, PCB assembly lines, and anywhere flexible IC insertion is needed. Its high insertion life, robust construction, and compatibility with multiple IC sizes make it an essential component for engineers, technicians, and production teams.
