ABSTRACT:
A zero-insertion-force test socket is provided which utilizes a unique contact structure to reduce the overall force necessary to actuate the socket while retaining a high contact force. Two separate contact spring portions are used to isolate that portion of the contact which supplies contact pressure from that portion of the contact which allows travel of the contact away from the path of a device to be inserted into the socket.
