QN-Series

Accelerated life testing solution

Smiths Interconnect has taken a leadership role in designing and developing socket solutions for the newest QFN packages such as MLF, BCC, and LPCC. These sockets offer a modular design in a small outline with very low inductance. The new Open Top QFN socket allows for more convenient package loading and unloading in most of the same lead count options as the lidded version.
