SOP (Small Outline Package) is a SMD component package. The SOP is the SMD equivalent of the DIP component package, and has the same pitch of 2.54mm (100mil).

Synonyms

  • 11-5H1S: Toshiba’s package code for it’s 2.54SOP41.
  • 2.54SOP4: Toshiba variant of the SOP-41.
  • DUB: TI SOP-82

Similar To

  • SSOP (Shrink Small Outline Package): A smaller version of the SOP package.

SOP-4

The SOP-4 is an easy to solder, medium sized, 4-pin SMD package. Commonly used for small solid-state relays (Vishay makes quite a few of them) and optocouplers. Related to SOP-4L, which is the same width, but longer.
