Ironwood Grypper sockets are great for enabling fast easy swap out of a BGA device for development sorting and failure analysis. The Grypper socket allows you to simply snap in the BGA device into the socket – No Lid needed. The Grypper sockets are the same size as the device, “ZERO FOOTPRINT SOCKET”, so they will reflow directly onto the same area as the original device. The Grypper has excellent electrical performance to 40 GHz @ -1dB.
