New Line of Sockets Protects Delicate Image Sensor Devices During Board Processing



West Warwick, RI, December 15, 2004 - Advanced recently introduced a line of image sensor sockets, designed to reduce costs by protecting valuable image sensors from damage during board assembly and processing. Standard, footprint-specific and custom configurations are available for virtually any application from scanners to security systems to satellite imaging. As with any sockets from Advanced, this new line features high quality screw-machined terminals and multi-fingered contacts for long-term durability in even the most demanding applications. Standard sockets are available in FR-4 insulators in thru-hole and surface mount designs. Other options include molded or Peel-A-Way® insulators and lead-free designs.

Benefits of using an image sensor socket include:

- Protect sensor performance by inserting after the reflow soldering process.

- Eliminate the chance for damage to valuable sensors during board assembly caused by prolonged exposure to heat and errant solder flux on glass components.

- Reduce costs by eliminating the need for glass cleaning operations.

- Plan for device shortages or future upgrades by designing a socket onto your board.
