The Base Sockets category at Roshanex holds IC sockets and pin headers for electronics projects and repairs. Students, hobbyists and repair technicians use them to mount chips on a board without soldering the chip itself.

You can choose DIP IC sockets from 8 pin up to 40 pin, including 14, 16, 18, 20, 28 and 32 pin sizes. In addition, there is a green DIP 40 pin ZIF socket for test and burn-in work. For boards and modules, the range also offers 40 pin male and female header strips.

Because a socket lets you swap a chip quickly, it also keeps the IC away from soldering heat. Match the pin count of base sockets to your chip, then order online with delivery across Pakistan.
