Ergonomically designed, the TS-SS-11, TS-SS-12, TS-SG-01, and TS-SG-02 force-indicating compression screws promise quick and error-free chip insertion in BGA and QFN sockets with bandwidths up to 40 GHz. Described as affordable add-on mechanisms for the company’s sockets, the screws enable the socket user to insert chips while always having the proper downward force on the chip. Devices work in all socket sizes from 10 mm x 10 mm to 35 mm and with BGA ball counts over 1,000. Also, the components allow easier socket operation via elastomer, diamond particle, or spring pin contactors. Single-piece pricing for the TS-SG-01 and TS-SG-02 is $99.
