ABSTRACT:
a cover assembly for a leadless chip carrier socket including a spring cover and locking bracket selectively positionable on a socket body in any one of four positions. The spring cover is pivotally mounted on the socket body and is movable between an open position and a closed position at which the cover engages the locking bracket. The cover is formed with four arm members which are spring loaded and which engage the top of a chip carrier at eight pressure points. The force exerted by the spring cover in a closed position applies a downward force against the chip package to effect positive electrical contact with a plurality of contacts mounted in the socket which are adapted to be interconnected with a printed circuit board or circuit pad.
