What kind of socket would I use to connect a 5-pin 0.067" pitch part (the Murata OKR-T10-W12) to a piece of normal 0.1" pitch stripboard?

Googling "0.067 5-pin socket" gets me hits for CPU sockets and the like.

  • \$\begingroup\$ Try CAPITAL ADVANCED 33115 SMD ADAPTER, 5-TO-263, 5-SIP -- adapter board intended for 1.7mm pitch SMT component to 2.54mm (0.100 inch), won't be pretty but might work for this application. The only 1.7mm adapter I found on newark/element14. \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ @IgnacioVazquez-Abrams What are they intended for in that case? To be directly soldered onto a board? I wanted to avoid soldering them directly to make them more easily replaceable, and less easily damage-able during the process. \$\endgroup\$

You could make a breakout PCB using Mill-Max female pins and a 0.1" pitch header. Photo (rendering, actually) is from Digikey, Mill-Max 0507-0-15-15-31-27-10-0.

enter image description here

Or if you're in a hurry, just solder some bare extension wires on and stick them in the breadboard (staggered).
