ABSTRACT:
A connector for an integrated circuit (IC) chip to secure the IC chip during testing. The connector includes a unique latching system with a pivotal contact pad carried beneath a latch plate for self-adjusting alignment prior to engaging the leads of the IC chip. The latching system also includes an actuator and hook member pivotally connected to the latch plate in an over center movement fashion to increase the clamping force uniformly across IC leads.
