Brass Terminal For CPU
What is the PGA socket?
PGA (Pin Grid Array) sockets are a type of IC (Integrated Circuit)
socket used for devices with a high number of pins arranged in a
grid pattern. These sockets allow for reliable electrical
connections and easy insertion/removal of PGA-packaged chips.
Common pitch sizes include 1.27mm to 2.54mm, and they are widely
used in CPU testing, programming, and burn-in applications where
frequent chip replacement is required.
Key Advantages:
1. Tool-Free Replacement & Maintenance.
JRKCONN PGA connectors feature a pluggable design, allowing for
quick module or CPU replacement without soldering—saving time and
reducing operational costs, especially in field-maintained systems.
2. Simplified and Cost-Efficient Motherboard Design.
With pins on the component side and simple sockets on the
motherboard, this structure simplifies PCB layouts and
significantly reduces manufacturing cost, perfect for scalable and
budget-sensitive designs.
3. Repairable Pin Design for Extended Lifespan.
JRKCONN PGA connectors allow bent pins to be manually realigned in
many cases. This maintainability helps reduce part replacement
rates and ensures longer operational life in harsh environments.
4. High-Density and Modular Compatibility.
Supports large pin-count configurations and compact layouts—ideal
for edge computing, smart devices, medical electronics, and high-IO
control systems.
5. OEM/ODM Customization Support.
JRKCONN offers full customization services, including pin layout,
socket material, and mechanical compatibility, making it a
preferred partner for integrators and brand manufacturers seeking
flexible interconnect solutions.
Applications of PGA sockets
PGA (Pin Grid Array) sockets are mainly used to connect
microprocessors and ICs with multiple pins to PCBs. They provide
safe, reliable, and removable connections, making them ideal for
various industries. They are used in the following areas:
1. Microprocessor Mounting & Replacement
Widely used in desktops, servers, and embedded systems to mount
CPUs, MCUs, and DSPs, such as AMD and legacy Intel (e.g., Socket
478) chips.
2. Product Testing & Prototyping
Ideal for R&D and lab environments, PGA sockets allow engineers
to easily insert and remove chips during testing or debugging. Also
helps inspect solder points clearly.
3. Industrial & Harsh Environment Use
Customized PGA sockets can withstand extreme temperatures, dust,
and moisture, making them suitable for industrial control,
aerospace, transportation, and automation systems.
4. Medical, Automotive & Military Electronics
PGA socket connectors are used in high-reliability applications
such as medical devices, vehicle control units, and military-grade
electronics. Compatible with FPGA, CPLD, and other high-pin-count
logic devices.
