8 Pin IC Base

8 Pin IC Socket base adaptor designed as a 8 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 8 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 also used for prototyping new circuits because they allow easy component swapping.

This is a low-cost 8 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 soldering & desoldering process. The socket used when the IC temperature become sensitive and the heat from the soldering iron can damage the IC. This socket used when working with a microcontroller IC and can be removed for programming.
