To verify the performance of a high-power network processor chip, Ironwood Electronics’ 94+ GHz bandwidth elastomer socket can be used with a heatsink/axial flow fan to remove 135+ watts of heat generation. The elastomer socket is transparent, so the performance is equivalent to that of the direct solder version. The inductance of elastomer is 0.1nH, and […]

Spring pin sockets support up to 34GHz with standard and custom designs
Ironwood Electronics’ new Spring Pin sockets (ESS) can be easily customized for specific test heights, force, plating finish, materials, etc. The spring pin functions as the interface between the IC package and the circuit board. These contacts support up to 34GHz bandwidth with standard designs, and with customization, impedance can be matched for the highest […]
94GHz Swivel lid elastomer socket for BGA196
Quickly and easily Socket your 0.8mm pitch 14×14 array, BGA196 packages on any application board with performance equivalent to direct solder version using high speed and low inductance elastomer that operates from -55C to +160C.
Clamshell spring pin socket for power transistor
Constructed with stamped spring pin technology rated for 23GHz bandwidth with an operating temperature range of -55C to +180C. The current capacity is 4 Amps with a self-inductance of 0.93 nH and capacitance of 0.097 pF. With lever operation, it is easy to swap devices and characterize.
