A socket includes a mechanism to gain electrical access to integrated circuit package pins in an end-user system. A pin grid array (PGA) socket includes signal traces that lead to a connector accessible by test equipment. In one embodiment, the PGA socket is a zero insertion force (ZIF) socket, and in other embodiments, the PGA socket is a low insertion force (LIF) socket. In other embodiments, multiple PGA sockets are interconnected.
