ABSTRACT:
A DIP carrier and socket including a generally rectangular socket and mating DIP carrier in which the socket component includes a plurality of contacts disposed along two sides thereof with the terminal portion of each contact extending through the bottom of the socket and the contact portion extending through the side wall and into a carrier-receiving inner receptacle formed in the top of the body. Each end of the socket is provided with keyways. The external perimeter of the carrier body is configured to be matingly received within the socket receptacle and is adapted to receive a DIP in inverted disposition in the bottom thereof. The carrier includes vertical slots formed in each side for receiving the DIP legs in recessed disposition, and a longitudinally extending beam which forms a detent for locking the carrier within the socket. The ends of the carrier are keyed to match the socket keyways and a pull tab is formed on the upper side of the carrier body for facilitating insertion and removal of the carrier into and out of the socket. When the carrier is inserted into the socket, the socket contacts are received within the side slots of the carrier and engage the DIP legs.
