16-Pin SOIC to DIP Adapter .470” Plug Version – .3” DIP to Dual SOIC | LIF Socket

The 16-Pin SOIC to DIP Adapter .470” Plug Version provides a practical solution for converting a 16-pin, .3” wide DIP layout to two SOIC plug modules. These modules feature a .470” tip-to-tip spacing, making them ideal for wider SOIC footprints.

This adapter kit includes one DIP base board with 0.100” pitch and two SOIC plug modules with 0.050” pitch. These modules fit many SOIC device footprints. The pre-installed LIF socket uses machined pins to hold devices securely, yet it allows easy insertion and removal during testing.

Because of its slim format, this adapter is well-suited for gang-style configurations. You can use it to prototype, debug firmware, or convert surface-mount layouts to DIP without adding bulk. Additionally, the compact layout helps save space in bench setups or production fixtures.
