An advanced zero-insertion force (ZIF) socket for coupling an electronic package having a plurality of electrical pins onto a printed circuit board (PCB) of a computer system. Such a ZIF socket comprises a base having a plurality of receptacles adapted to receive electrical pins of an electronic package; a top plate slidably mounted on the base, having a plurality of pin insertion apertures adapted to permit insertion of the electrical pins of the electronic package; and a cam mechanism having an integrated lever which is operable for actuation in the same plane as the socket, for sliding the top plate over the base in a first direction to permit insertion of the electrical pins of the electronic package into respective apertures of the base, and for sliding the top plate over the base in a second direction opposite to the first direction to secure an electrical coupling of the electrical pins of the electronic package with the receptacles of the base.
