Off–set contact = 0.8 to 1.27 mm pitch
In–line contact = 0.5 mm pitch or less
Sensata also offers a small 26x19.50 mm outline through–hole socket for smaller 0.50 mm packages. This socket can accept packages up to 11x17 mm and utilizes a dual pinch style contact, eliminating any witness marks on the bottom of the ball.
