ABSTRACT:
A novel integrated circuit socket provides splash-preventing capillary action improving half-round section pins that seat better by means of a conical longitudinal shape that wedges in holes in conventional printed circuit boards. The pins have P.C. board top-track contacting spurs at an upper portion that serve two purposes: they improve capillary action and they reduce bellying (i.e. flexing) of the I.C. socket during assembly to the P.C. Board. The invention provides improved visibility by co-action of transparent material of which the I.C. socket is made, with a plurality of Fresnel lenses molded in the bottom surface of the I.C. socket.
