Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a socket for a semiconductor device that can uniformly bring a bare chip into contact with a bump of a sheet with an electrode without depending on the size of the bare chip and can press it with a suitable pressure. SOLUTION: In an IC socket body, a carrier unit 21 storing the bare chip inside is removably mounted to a storage section. The carrier unit 21 has the sheet 32 with the electrode and an attitude stabilizing member 30 mounted on this, and the attitude stabilizing member 30 stabilizes the attitude of the bare chip to be substantially parallel with the flat face of the sheet 32 with the electrode.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To preclude a bump of a connection substrate from being crushed, even when a pressing lid and a carrier housing are combined under the condition where no bare chip exists. SOLUTION: This carrier unit 40 includes the carrier housing 46, a contact sheet 44 provided with the bump 44B pressed onto an electrode group of the stored bare chips by a pressing body 56, the pressing lid 52, and a latch mechanism 50. The bump 44B is not crushed even under the condition where no bare chip exists, since pressing parts 56wa, 56wb of the pressing body 56 have respectively recesses 56A, 56B inserted with the bump 44B.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a peeling mechanism capable of easily and forcefully peeling contact of an IC socket and a pad of an IC package stuck on together. SOLUTION: The IC socket comprises a socket main part, a cover which freely moves up and down on the socket main part through a spring, at least a pair of latches which open and close by a vertical movement of the cover, a floating plate which freely moves up and down on the socket main part through a spring and clips the IC package between itself and the latch, and a contact of which the contact part for contacting the pad of the IC package is arranged in the aperture provided on the floating plate and which electrically connects the IC package and the test board, and the latch has a push-up member for pushing up the floating plate. The above contact may be a pogo pin. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an assembling method of a socket for an area array capable of easily incorporating a seat without damaging the tip of a contact. SOLUTION: This method comprises first to fourth processes of: accommodating the seat having an IC package and vertically movably supported to a socket board in a seat storage chamber of the socket board: fixing contact electrically kept into contact with the IC package and elastically deformable to the socket board through the seat: lifting the seat from its storing position to a predetermined position: and mounting an elastic member between the seat and the bottom wall of the seat storage chamber, and the first to fourth processes are. A slot having a predetermined vertical length is formed in the seat, and a fifth process for fixing a shaft to the socket board through the slot is performed between the third and forth processes, or after the fourth process.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a latch lock mechanism of a KGD carrier which facilitates the simultaneous opening/closing operation of latches and the mounting/removing operation of a carrier retainer in a simple structure. SOLUTION: The mechanism comprises a carrier retainer having a cover and a chip retainer, a carrier board having a carrier body, a substrate and a carrier base, at least two mutually opposed latches turnably mounted on the cover of the carrier retainer, each forming an L-letter with a handling part and a lock part, and an engaging part provided on the carrier body of the carrier board for engaging with the lock part of the latch. When the lock parts of the two opposed latches are closed, the engaging part engages with the lock part provided on the carrier body to lock the carrier retainer and the carrier board.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a KGD carrier structured to be adaptable to a two-point contact type IC socket, thereby ensuring the electric connection. SOLUTION: The KGD carrier holds an IC chip with a carrier retainer and a carrier board comprising a carrier body, a carrier base and a substrate. The carrier body has IC socket contact-insertable cut grooves at a position facing a pad formed around the periphery of the substrate, and the carrier base has IC socket contact-insertable cut grooves at a position facing the pad formed around the periphery of the substrate sandwiched between the carrier body and the carrier base so as to electrically connect the pad of the substrate with the contact of the IC socket.
