SO8W SMT Socket (207 mil) – SOK-SPI-8W
Swap SO8W (207 mil) SPI flash chips without soldering
The SOK-SPI-8W is a surface-mount socket for SPI flash chips in the SO8W (207 mil) package. It is soldered onto the board’s flash footprint in place of the chip. From then on, you drop chips into the socket and take them out again, so you can try different flash parts or reprogram one off-board without reworking the PCB.
DediProg’s specification drawing gives the socket pitch only. If the production board will carry the chip without the socket, plan the pad layout for the chip’s own pin pitch from the start of the PCB design.
Highlights
- Fits SPI flash in the SO8W (207 mil) package
- Solders onto the board in place of the flash chip
- Chips go in and out without soldering or desoldering
- PCB layout, specification drawing and 3D model file available from DediProg
How It Is Used
- Start with the SO8W (207 mil) footprint on your board
- Solder the socket onto the footprint instead of the SPI flash
- Insert the SPI flash chip into the socket
- Swap or remove the chip whenever you need to
