ABSTRACT:
A memory module test socket can accept modules with bent or warped printed-circuit boards (PCBs). A support plate is mounted above a Personal Computer (PC) motherboard by standoffs. An extender card fits through a slot in the support plate. The bottom edge of the extender card is plugged into a motherboard memory module socket on the motherboard. The top of the extender card has an extender socket that sits atop the support plate. End guides are mounted to the support plate and clamp down the extender socket. Funnel guides formed in the end guides have a funnel shape to guide ends of a memory module for better alignment when inserted into the extender socket. A pusher plate with a triangular guide or a perpendicular rod applies a perpendicular force on the middle of a warped memory module to align the middle to the extender socket during insertion.
