Ironwood Electronics has extended its embedded gold plated wire elastomer (SG) socket line with SG15 and SG25 versions that provides up to 40 GHz bandwidth in a small, cost effective ZIF socket for prototype and test applications.  The SG15 & SG25 sockets are available in a small footprint that is only 2.5mm larger than the IC […]

High Performance IC Sockets and Adaptors: An economical and reliable alternative to soldering BGA devices directly to the motherboard. Same footprint as BGA device. Compact, low-profile design maximizes PC board space. Ironwood has Fastest Delivery. Soldering Very Similar to Soldering IC Package. PCB can be reflowed with Giga-snaP. Access to BGA Pads for Test & Interconnection. Pin Counts from […]

The new SSL 1.2 waterproof connector is developed for LED lighting and non-lighting applications exposed to various moisture environments. In order to meet the needs of your compact products, SSL 1.2 is ideal for where the low profile design is required. SSL 1.2 provides wire-to-wire and wire-to-board configurations for your wide use. With its broad range from SMT […]

GT is a new elastomer technology that has silver particles held in a conductive column like buttons which are embedded in a nonconductive polymer substrate on a proper pitch that provides high compliance and extreme temperature ranges. GT is available for BGA, LGA, QFN, PoP and other packages from 0.15mm to 1.27mm pitch.  

Ironwood's GT sockets are ideal for prototyping and testing almost any BGA or QFN device application. These IC sockets provide excellent signal integrity yet remain cost effective. Innovative elastomer interconnect technology that delivers low signal loss (1dB at 75GHz) and supports BGA or QFN packages with pitches down to 0.15mm was utilized in these sockets. […]

Ironwood Electronics has recently introduced a new high performance QFN socket for 0.5mm pitch QFN40. The CG-QFN-7009 socket is designed for 6X6 mm package size and operates at bandwidth up to 10 GHz with less than 1dB of insertion loss. The socket is designed with easy open single latch snap lid with integrated spring loaded […]
