Stacked Memory Socket Houses FS CSP336s January 2004 Issue Published Date: January 13, 2004
Designed for Intel's 0.65-mm pitch FS CSP336 stacked ICs, the SG-BGA-7022 memory socket specifies a 10 GHz bandwidth and a contact resistance of 10 m?. The socket features a precision design that guides the IC to the exact position for connection of each ball and uses an aluminum heat sink screw to provide compressive force. Mechanically mounted to the target PCB, users twist the socket lid open, insert the IC, close the lid, and rotate the aluminum heat sink screw to provide downward force. A removable IC frame at the top of the socket, which matches the height of the top memory chip, distributes force evenly. Pricing is $434.25 each/100. IRONWOOD ELECTRONICS, Eagan, MN.
