Hi, I am interested in buying a pair of Dual Axis Gyros, namely the IDG300. I would like to know what kind and where I could possibly purchase IC sockets that can work with this device.
Thank you and good day.

Sockets for QFN packaged devices are available, but are intended for "burning-in" the chips. They are very expensive.

sparkfun has the Sense-IDG300 which is the IC already on a breakout board, or you can try these QFN to DIP adapters.

To expand on this - the ones I've seen have been in the hundreds of dollars.

well, when i ordered them, the breakout board version wasn't offered yet. Anyway, can anyone give a site/store that actually sells these kinds of ic sockets. Thank you and good day.

Edit:
oops... didn't see the link above... thanks
