28 Pin IC Base
A 28 pin narrow IC socket base adaptor is a holder for a 28 pin IC that can be soldered onto the PCB and allows the IC to be inserted or removed as needed. It serves as a detachable IC holder for a narrow IC.
The socket protects the IC from heat damage during soldering, especially for temperature sensitive ICs. It also facilitates working with microcontroller ICs that can be taken out for programming.

28 Pin IC Base (DIP) – Overview
The 28 Pin IC Base (DIP) is a narrow 28-pin socket adaptor sold in packs of five units that solders directly onto a PCB to hold DIP packages securely. It simplifies insertion and removal of ICs during prototyping, repair, or programming without subjecting sensitive chips to repeated soldering heat.
Key Features of 28 Pin IC Base (DIP) –
- 28 contact points with phosphor bronze contacts and tin plating for reliable conductivity
- JDEC compliant design with molded notch to ensure proper pin-1 orientation
- Heat-resistant construction (UL94V-0 rated) protects ICs during through-hole soldering
- Wide operating range from –25°C to 85°C for stable performance in diverse environments
- Easy insertion and removal of narrow DIP ICs accelerates prototyping and maintenance
- Genuine product quality and fast shipping from Zbotic
Applications and Use Cases
- Mounting microcontroller ICs for in-circuit programming and debugging
- Replacing worn or damaged sockets on vintage audio, video, or communications boards
- Building custom prototype PCBs in electronics workshops and university labs
- Field servicing of industrial control modules requiring quick chip swaps
- DIY robotics and automation projects needing removable logic or driver ICs
How to Use 28 Pin IC Base (DIP) –
Place the socket onto your PCB footprint, align the molded notch with the pin-1 marking, and solder each lead using standard through-hole techniques. Once soldered, simply insert the 28-pin IC into the base by matching its notch to the socket’s, press gently until seated, and remove or replace the chip as needed without reheating the board.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this socket protect ICs during soldering?
Yes. The 28 Pin IC Base is made with UL94V-0 flame-retardant materials and high-temperature contacts, shielding sensitive ICs from soldering heat and preventing damage.
Can I use this socket with all 28-pin DIP ICs?
It is JDEC compliant for standard narrow 28-pin DIP packages. It fits most logic, microcontroller, memory, and analog ICs designed in the narrow DIP form factor.
How do I ensure correct IC orientation?
The molded notch on the socket aligns with the notch or dot marking on your IC and the silkscreen on your PCB. Match these indicators before seating the chip to avoid reversed insertion.
