PLCC
Last modified: Tuesday, January 06, 2004
Short for Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier, a square surface-mount chip package for low thermal output microprocessors that substitutes epoxy plastic for the ceramic materials that are commonly used to encase chips in systems designed for microprocessors that produce high thermal outputs that can melt the plastic epoxy. Unlike pin grid arrays , the die in a PLCC is attached to the package by a gold-plated contact pad.
