The system is comprised of a surface mount socket plus a male adapter which permit the BGA package to be plugged into the host PCB. Coplanarities of less than .005" assure reliable soldering between the socket and the PCB footprint. Both the socket and adapter have FR-4 insulators to match the TCE's of the device and circuit board during loading their reflow cycles.

Elpakco BGA socketing systems accept the high-pin count devices, typically on .050" grid, but available down to .8mm grid. Any footprint can be supplied to match your device. Pins and sockets are precision-machined from brass, and gold plated. Press-fit into every socket is a reliable "multifinger" beryllium copper contact having very low mating force.

When supplying a 1mm grid BGA socket, a baby pinto receptical is used, which has very low insertion force and is made out of a one piece beryllium copper to allow more spacing between pins preventing noise.

Our .8mm grid BGA sockets are brand new and we are extremely proud to offer these capabilities. Please contact us with your specifics and we can show you what we have to offer!
