Dummy Components

Dummy Components are a specialty of Practical Components

Dummy Components from Practical Components are the exact mechanical equivalent of fully functional, electronically active components. Dummy SMD and Through-Hole components are available in all popular IC packages including DIP, Flat Pack, LCC, BGA, Flip Chip, CSP, QFP, LQFP, TSOP, TSSOP, SSOP, PLCC and also resistors and capacitors. Why use dummy components? Dummies save money! In cases where only mechanical characteristics are required, dummy components can be used instead of live, functioning components. Since there are no expensive die inside the package, the cost  is significantly lower.
