ABSTRACT:
A chip carrier socket assembly is provided for an integrated circuit chip having leads extending therefrom. The assembly includes an insulating housing and an insulating cover for positioning a chip carrier therebetween. A plurality of terminals are mounted on the housing for contacting the leads of the chip carrier. At least one pair of resilient complementarily interengaging latch arms, one latch arm on the housing and the other latch arm on the cover, are provided for securing the cover to the housing about the chip carrier. The latch arms are concealed within a cavity of the assembled housing and cover to prevent unintentional unlatching of the latch arms. An access opening is provided in the cover, communicating with the cavity, and through which the latch arms can be unlatched from outside the assembled housing and cover.
