Smt to dip adaptors, soic-8 to dip-8 converter smd, #14
SOIC-8 to DIP-8 direct-to-socket converter
This listing is for style #14, shown below
#14 and #17 are bottom soldered. #15 and #16 are top soldered carriers (all thru-hole pins) but do not have the above features.
Industrial PCB assemblers use machines, not humans to place parts on a PCB. The solder paste is applied by silkscreening (printng like an ink) and melted by reflow systems. These systems only require IC solder pads as small as a tiny dot, and they can get the IC soldered in position every time with pinpoint accuracy.
