Adafruit SOIC 8-Pin Test Clip to DIP Adapter

This SOIC Test Clip efficiently tests and connects to Flash memory, EEPROMs, or other 8-SOIC chips with precision, eliminating the need for soldering. Similar to an alligator clip, but designed with 8 metal teeth for secure grip on standard and wide SOICs.Perfect for probing I2C, SPI, or QSPI connections, it allows firmware burns without desoldering. The clip's robust yet soft grip ensures no damage, using two rows of gold-plated contacts. Continuity is maintained via a ~30cm 28AWG cable with an adapter, integrating seamlessly with any breadboard through a 0.1" header adapter.Experience a user-friendly design that avoids discomfort and secures well, preventing slips on wide SOICs. Although slightly more costly, its performance justifies the investment, offering superior usage without hand strain. Ensure adequate clearance around the SOIC for optimal grip by the plastic body.
