OTS-48 Open Top Socket for FIT Base Boards

A simple open-top QFP48 socket designed for use with FIT (Fault Injection Toolbox) base boards. The OTS-48 makes it easy to identify and access the device under test, and is the recommended socket style for EMFI work when using socketed targets.

Provides:

• One open-top QFP48 socket compatible with FIT DIP48 headers

Key Features:

• Open-top access: Clear view of the package for quick visual identification and easy probe placement.

• EMFI‑friendly: Open-top format is required or strongly preferred for many electromagnetic fault injection setups using sockets.

• Fits FIT workflow: Designed to plug into FIT base boards and work with standard QFP48-to-DIP48 FIT or custom boards.

• Low profile and robust: Keeps the target secure while still allowing fast and easy insertion and removal.

• Reusable and inexpensive: Swap targets quickly between test runs without soldering.

Why You Need It:

Sockets simplify target changes. The OTS-48’s open access speeds identification, probing, and positioning for EMFI and other injection techniques while preserving the convenience of a socketed workflow.

Typical Uses:

• EMFI campaigns that require open access to the package surface

• Rapid target swaps during fault injection testing

A compact, practical socket designed with fault injection in mind that is part of the FIT toolchain and simplifies target handling and EMFI testing environment setting.
