18 Pin IC Socket base adaptor designed as an 18 pin IC holder, that can be soldered directly onto the PCB. The IC can be removed from this socket whenever required. So in case if your IC damages you can easily replace it without desoldering. The 18 Pin IC Base easily munted on the socket at the time of use. This base acts as a removable IC holder. They provide easy safe removal and insertion of IC chips. The IC is also used for prototyping new circuits because they allow easy component swapping.
This is a low-cost 18 pin IC base that came with a pitch of 2.54mm for DIP IC’s. Basically, the IC base allows easy replacement of IC eliminating the risk of damage from overheating during the soldering & desoldering process. This is achieved by first soldering the base to the board then plugging within the IC later. IC bases also are useful if you would like to reuse ICs without the necessity to desolder them whenever The socket is used when the IC temperature becomes sensitive and the heat from the soldering iron can damage the IC. This socket is used when working with a microcontroller IC and can be removed for programming.
