ABSTRACT:
A socket terminal assembly includes a socket body having a first end with a first opening to receive a contact element and a second opening at a second end to receive a pin. A contact element, located in the first opening, is configured to contact the corresponding connection region of a printed circuit board; a pin has an end adapted to contact an electrical contacting area of an integrated circuit package and an opposite end configured to be inserted within the opening of the socket body. A contact spring in the second opening receives the pin and applies a frictional force sufficient to retain the lower end of the pin within the opening of the socket body. A resilient member is disposed within the opening between the contact element and the contact spring. The resilient member applies to the pin and contact element, in response to a downward force applied to the pin or an upward force applied to the contact element, a force sufficient to overcome the frictional force of the contact spring. An intercoupling component includes a socket support member having holes, each hole receiving a corresponding socket terminal assembly.
