Tray for ball terminal integrated circuits

摘要

A tray for the storage and transportation of multiple ball grid array (BGA) integrated circuit components in either of two component orientations. The tray has a lattice framework that defines discrete storage pocket areas. First inwardly facing tabs on the framework define a first support plane for engaging a component is a first orientation of the tray and component. Second inwardly facing tabs on the framework define a second support plane for engaging the component in the second orientation of the tray and component. The framework includes oppositely directed central and corner extensions that stabilize the component in the housing plane in either orientation and a registration structure for allowing the plural trays to be stacked for transport in either orientation.
