PGA Sockets
Our processor socket line is designed for use with Intel- and AMD-based microprocessor packages. Complex printed circuits are too valuable to risk direct soldering to expensive integrated circuits (ICs). Using a socket offers advantages that prove cost effective and simplify board design. Socket types include land grid array (LGA), micro pin grid array (mPGA), and PGA socket solutions with low to zero insertion force. The mPGA and PGA sockets are designed for various microprocessor packages for notebook PCs, desktop PCs, and servers. For custom applications, these HXC125 compression sockets can be configured to the specific application.
