<p>A socket for a pin grid-array package includes a base housing (51) having terminals arranged in the same grid pattern as the lead pins (118) of the pin grid-array package and a cover (52) mounted on the base housing for slidable movement relative to the base housing. The cover has through holes (56) therein for receiving the lead pins of the pin grid-array package therethrough. The cover is movable relative to the base housing between a first, zero-insertion-force, pin-insertion position and a second, contact-engagement position. The cover and the base housing may include both metal and plastic components. An actuator (53) provides drive means to drive the cover (52) linearly along the base (51). <IMAGE></p> |
