ABSTRACT:
An LGA connector assembly (1) includes an LGA connector (2) and a generally rectangular pick up cap (3). The connector has a metal clip (25, 25′) having a pair of arcuate lateral sides (256). The pick up cap has a plane top surface (300) and a bottom surface (301). A pair of supporting members (309, 300′) is formed at opposite lateral sides of the pick up cap respectively, each supporting member depending from the bottom surface. When the pick up cap is engagingly mounted on a top portion of the connector, the supporting members are tightly attached on the lateral sides of the clip to support the pick up cap. A vacuum suction device can reliably engage the top surface of the pick up cap without causing damage to the pick up cap. The LGA connector assembly can thus be safely moved to a desired location on a PCB.
