WhiteCat
Practical Devices is pleased to offer a collection of SO-8 amplifier chips premounted on "WhiteCat" SO-8 to DIP-8 adapters.

The WhiteCat is nearly identical to the "Browndog" adapter, but has slightly smaller outside dimensions than the Browndog, allowing it to fit into tighter spaces.

Although the WhiteCat adapters were designed for use with the XM4 and XM5 Headphone Amplifiers, they can be used on other brands of amplifiers which have an 8-pin DIP socket.
