SOP8 to DIP8 IC Socket Adapter, Wide-Body 150mil Programmer Socket, Green Smart Electronics cy

Bridge the gap between surface-mount and through-hole prototyping with this SOP8 to DIP8 IC socket adapter. Designed with a wide-body 150mil footprint, it lets you seat SOP8 (SOIC-8) chips securely into standard DIP8 programmer sockets and breadboards—no soldering directly to the chip required. The wide 150mil spacing accommodates the most common SOIC-8 package widths, while the green insulated housing makes pin alignment easy to read and helps prevent accidental shorts during programming or testing. Spring-loaded contacts hold each SOP8 chip firmly in place for reliable connections through repeated insert and remove cycles. Ideal for EEPROM, flash memory, and microcontroller programming, as well as firmware flashing, IC testing, and general electronics prototyping. A practical, reusable solution for hobbyists, repair technicians, and engineers who regularly work with SOP8 and DIP8 components. Key features: - SOP8 to DIP8 adapter socket for programmer and breadboard use - Wide-body 150mil (1.27mm pitch) footprint for standard SOIC-8 chips - Secure contact design for stable, repeatable connections - Green housing for clear pin identification - Suitable for EEPROM, flash, MCU programming, testing, and prototyping
