AccuZIP Adapter Modules

The Accutek family of AccuZIP adapter modules is designed to convert any digital integrated circuit in SOIC package to side mounted ZIP modules. These AccuZIP modules can be used to save space on thru-hole boards or replace unavailable monolithic ZIP devices. The family consists of a series of unique low-profile printed circuit boards designed to accept ICs in either the narrow, 0.150" or wide 0.3000" SOIC packages along with a decoupling chip capacitor. The SOIC's are converted to standardized ZIP (ZIG ZAG In Line Packages) components suitable for thru-hole mounting on complex circuit boards. Custom designed ZIP adapters are also supplied by Accutek for adapting SOIC packaged analog circuits, providing for power and ground on unique pins and special shielding between input and output functions. Two or more functions can be mounted on both sides of the adapter to create a low height multi-chip ZIP Module. The low height of each module allows use in products with low height restrictions, such as circuit boards used in VMEbus, STDbus and Multibus II applications. The AccuZIP configurations depicted allow adaptation of nearly any digital integrated circuit for use where available circuit board space is at a premium. Features

• Adapts any 14, 16, 20, 24, 28 or 40 pin digital IC for vertical mounting in circuit boards
• Unique configurations available for analog functions
• Custom multi-chip configurations for special functions
• Mother board circuit density dramatically increased by up to 65% compared to conventional DIP or SOIC
• Typical width needed for IC reduced from 0.325" to 0.150"
• On-board decoupling capacitor chip reduces mother board assembly time
• AccuZIP modules adapt any narrow 0.150" or wide 0.300" digital IC for high density designs
• Ideal for use in VMEbus, STDbus and Multibus II board designs
