Socket Applications

Loranger Sockets are designed to withstand the conditions of burn-in, test, HAST, humidity and repeated insertions. Below are some of the applications for Loranger sockets.

Fine Pitch
Fine Pitch

Loranger sockets are available in over 120 different standard and custom contact pitches. Typical pitches include 1.27 mm, 1.0 mm, 0.80 mm, 0.50 mm, 0.40 mm, 0.35 mm, 0.30 mm, 0.25 mm and smaller.

P-CAD EDA
Small Footprint

Loranger Burn-in and Test sockets are designed to have the smallest footprint possible. This allows an increased number of sockets on a burn-in board, and therefore increases the throughput of devices in each test run.

non magnetic
Non-Magnetic

Loranger sockets are available with optional nonmagnetic materials for test and burn-in of devices that are affected by nearby magnetic materials.

KELVIN
Kelvin

Hundreds of Loranger sockets are available with Kelvin connections. A Kelvin connection is two contact connections to one device pad or lead. When the device pad space is limited, Loranger also offers a “Double Duty Kelvin” contact. Why use Kelvin Contacts?

Heat Sinks
Heat Sinks, Heaters, Sensing

Loranger offers socket solutions to manage high wattage packages. Options are available for heatsinking, heating and temperature sensing. Programable heating is also available.

Oscillator
Crystal Oscillator

Loranger sockets can be used for test and burn-in of Crystal Oscillator packages, and are available with plated through hole or surface mount APS contacts. Socket are available for packages including: printed circuit card modules, LCC, DIP SIP, MEMS and QFN. Loranger sockets can also be used as an alternative to “Bed of Nails” test fixtures.

high current socket
High Current

Loranger can add multiple socket contacts to device pads as space allows to accommodate high currents.

300 C
High Temperature

Standard Loranger sockets are available for up to 140 C or 175 C use. Optional socket materials are available for up to 210 C use, and for up to 300 C use.

humidity
Humidity and HAST

Loranger sockets can be used for 85C / 85% humidity, and 130 C / 85% humidity (HAST) conditions. Loranger also designs and manufactures printed circuit boards and environmental systems for these conditions.

optical socket
Optical Access

Loranger offers socket solutions to accommodate your optical and standard packages that require access to the top of the package. Test and Burn-in Sockets can be designed to accommodate digital camera imaging sensors, LEDs, and other optical package styles.

MEMS
MEMS

Loranger test and burn-in sockets are available for MEMS (microelectro- mechanical systems) devices. Sockets are available with nonmagnetic materials and fine pitch contacts, and can accommodate QFN, LCC, Gull Wing or other package styles

KELVIN
Radiation Hardening

Loranger sockets can be used in Radiation Hardening test applications. Loranger has sockets for the standard TO, SMD and other package styles.
