From the perspective of the realized connection function, the connector can realize the connection between the printed circuit, the backplane, and the equipment. Among them, the IC socket is the connection of the typical component to the printed circuit board. Although the IC socket does not require soldering and re-soldering for the replacement of ICs, IC has always been a more troublesome component in electronic processing. In SMD processing, IC sockets have two types of installation.
One is designed for insertion, which can transform surface mount ICs into jack mounting. When you want to use a surface mount package on a full plug-in board, the adapter socket is a good choice. In this way, the existing assembly line can be used to assemble the entire circuit board, instead of developing a new assembly board that only mounts surface mount devices.
Another form of socket is designed for surface mounting. It has roughly the same land pattern as the original package, so if the design is reasonable, the circuit board can either be directly mounted with an IC or with an interchangeable socket. This type of socket is often used for general-purpose ROM chips produced in the early stages.
