which SOIC-8 clip ?

ttt7
ttt7 over 6 years ago

I'd like to buy a SOIC-8 clip

https://si.farnell.com/c/test-measurement/test-connectors-ic-clips/ic-test-clips?no-of-contacts=8contacts

 

Is there a notable difference between 3M 923650-08 and 3M 923655-08  ?

Are 3M 923650-08923650-08 sold nowadays still the ones sold in 2010, some of the customers described problems using them

https://www.element14.com/community/message/12898/l/test-clips-which-dont-fit-soic-8#12898

 

I'm excluding 923739-08, since it's only stocked in the USA.

923739-08923739-08 vs 923650-08923650-08, do higher numbers mean a newer model ?

 

Thank you

    Edward,

     

    I have a couple of the Pomona 5250 that I bought used off of Ebay (along with several other SOIC and DIP clips).  I don't know if some clipped off some of the plastic tabs that go between the spring loaded contacts that connect to the SOIC part or if they broke off, but I think that the clips would work much better (alignment) with them in place. Even with the missing tabs, they work very well and make great contact to the chips.

     

    If space is not an issue, but you can use higher pin count clips (like 14 and 16) to connect to an SOIC-8, so if you think you might need to clip on to larger parts in the future, you might get a larger clip now.

     

    Good luck,

    Gene
