Footprint Fit for a 44-Pin PLCC Device
The 69802-444LF is a 44-position PLCC socket arranged in a 4 x 11 grid — the standard footprint for 44-pin PLCC packages. The 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch on both the post and mating side matches the device lead spacing exactly, so no board layout adjustment is needed when swapping between this socket and a direct-solder PLCC. Open-frame construction means the PCB pads under the device are visible after soldering — useful for AOI inspection and for rework when a device needs replacement.
