Description
📌 Product Overview: 28-Pin Dual In-line Package (DIP) IC Socket
A 28-pin DIP IC socket is an essential component used to mount integrated circuits (ICs) with a 28-pin Dual In-line Package (DIP) without the need to solder the IC directly. This is especially useful for prototyping, development, testing, or replacing ICs without damaging them or the PCB.
It provides a reliable, removable connection and protects ICs from heat during soldering.
