The SparkFun SOIC to DIP Adapter converts 28-pin SOIC surface-mount packages to standard 0.1" through-hole headers, making it easy to prototype with SMD ICs on breadboards or in DIP sockets.

Key Features

  • 28-Pin SOIC Layout – Pad layout fits all standard 28-pin SOIC devices
  • 0.6" Pin Spacing – Standard wide-body (600 mil) DIP footprint, fits directly into wide DIP sockets
  • 0.1" Header Compatible – Break-away headers solder directly to the board for breadboard use

Ideal For

  • Prototyping with wide-body SOIC ICs (memories, drivers, 74-series, etc.)
  • Adapting SMD components for breadboard use
  • DIP socket replacement for SOIC packages
Tip: Use machine-pin headers for a tighter fit when inserting into IC sockets. Standard break-away headers work well for breadboard use.

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

Headers
Rows of connector contacts on a fixed pitch (commonly 2.54 mm) used to link a board to a breadboard, jumper wires, or another board. They come as male pin headers and female socket headers; when a module ships with pre-soldered headers it can be used straight away, whereas bare pads require soldering the pins yourself.
SMD
SMD means surface-mount device, a component style designed to be soldered directly onto the surface of a circuit board rather than through holes. SMD parts are compact and mounted flat on the board, which suits smaller and mass-produced designs.
through-hole
A mounting style where the component leads pass through holes in a circuit board and are soldered on the other side. Through-hole parts are often easier to handle and solder by hand, which is useful for classroom and hobby projects.
