PGA Sockets Adapters

PGA Sockets Pin Grid Array Socket     
A pin grid array, often abbreviated PGA, is a type of integrated circuit packaging. In a PGA, the package is square or rectangular, and the pins are arranged in a regular array on the underside of the package. The pins are commonly spaced 2.54 mm (0.1") apart, and may or may not cover the entire underside of the package.
PGAs are often mounted on printed circuit boards using the through hole method or inserted into a socket. PGAs allow for more pins per integrated circuit than older packages, such as dual in-line package (DIP).

PGA Sockets & Adapters
Low insertion force Pin Grid Array (PGA) Sockets and Adapters are available in a variety of RoHS Compliant insulators with hundreds of screw-machined terminal choices. Virtually any PGA footprint can be accommodated, including interstitial patterns.

Wide variety of materials, lengths, and sizes
Cost-effective method for replacing, repairing, or upgrading PGA devices
Unique options such as solder preform terminals eliminate the need for wave soldering in mixed SMT/Thru-hole applications
RoHS compliant insulators and screw-machined terminals are compatible with lead-free processing - select either Matte Tin/Gold (MG) or Gold/Gold (GG) plating

Antenk's Pin Grid Array (PGA) Sockets
Complex printed circuits are too valuable to risk direct soldering to expensive integrated circuits (ICs). Using a socket is the answer. The use of sockets offers advantages that prove cost effective and simplify board design.

Antenk's Processor Socket line is designed for use with Intel- and AMD-based microprocessor packages. Socket types include land grid array (LGA), micro pin grid array (mPGA), and PGA with low to zero insertion force. The mPGA and PGA sockets are designed for various microprocessor packages for notebook PCs, desktop PCs, and servers. For custom applications, the compression sockets can be configured to the specific application.
