## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA4727:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA4727:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

This socket is good for any SOIC/SOP **Wide**-**body** 16 pin chip in a 300mil wide body. Simply flip open the latch, insert the chip, and flip down the latch to secure it in place.

The chip is held securely against gold 'fingers' *(no, stop, Mr. Bond! It's not **that** Goldfinger!)* in the socket. The bottom footprint matches the same SOIC footprint so you can solder this onto an existing PCB as long as you have the clearance for the body of the socket

150mil wide chips will not fit! These are designed primarily for flash chips.
