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

The 18-Pin SOIC to DIP Adapter .470” Plug Version simplifies the task of converting an 18-pin, .3” wide DIP layout into two surface-mount SOIC outputs. With a .470” tip-to-tip spacing, this adapter supports wider SOIC devices often used in testing and development environments.

The kit includes one 18-pin DIP base board (0.100” pitch) and two 18-pin SOIC plug modules (0.050” pitch). It comes pre-assembled with a machined-pin LIF socket, making it easy to insert and remove ICs without tools. This feature is especially useful for repeated testing and quick prototyping.

Thanks to its narrow body, this adapter works well in gang setups or when space is limited on a test board. Whether you’re developing firmware, debugging systems, or working with SMT devices, this adapter provides a compact and effective solution.
