Resistor Networks - Package Style
IC Package dimensions for two common Resistor Network Packages.
The first graphics depict a 16-pin Surface Mount Package.
The caption includes the term DIP to indicate a dual in-line package and not a through-hole part
Side View 16-pin DIP (Surface Mount)
Top View 16-pin DIP (Surface Mount)
This data is from a Commercial Item Description as CID-87012. 10/2000 [see the note below].
Resistor Network, Fixed, Film, Surface Mount, Gull Wing, 16 Pin
Refer to MIL-PRF-914/2
Both views of the 16-pin DIP package view provide mechanical dimensions to indicate the size of the component. The dimensions indicated are in inches.

Molded 16-pin DIP
The 16 pin through-hole DIP package has been common for many years now. Make note of the physical dimensions because they are not the same a 16-pin IC DIP. Yes, both the 16-pin IC and resistor package can use the same IC socket or pad lay-out on the printed wiring board. The difference is in the thickness of the physical body, and the amount the body moves past the ends of the pins. Not really a problem unless these packages are placed end-to-end on the circuit board.
