ABSTRACT:
A connecting device is described for use in a test clip whose multiple contacts engage multiple leads of an IC (integrated circuit) device, which can be constructed reliably and at low cost. The test clip includes a flat flexible cable (54, FIG. 7 ) mounted on a clip housing, the cable having parallel conductors (50) mounted on insulation 53. Lower end portions of the conductors serve as lead-engaging contacts. Each conductor lower end portion extends in a substantially 180.degree. loop (62), with one side (70) of each loop being positioned to engage a corresponding lead of the IC device.
