    Abstract: An apparatus and method are disclosed for making connections between the pins of a multi-pin component and sockets mounted on a circuit board. A plurality of converter elements are installed between the component pins and sockets. Each converter element includes a receptor for mating with a pin of the multiple pin component. The receptor is sized to engage a pin having any diameter within a coarse range of diameters. Each converter element also includes a precision pin for mating with a socket on the circuit board. The diameter of the precision pin is held to a tolerance so that it is within a precision range of diameters. The variation in diameter within the precision range is less than the variation within the coarse range of diameters.

    Abstract: A method of providing such an intercoupling component (10) includes positioning terminals (50) within holes (64) of an insulative support member (62) and attaching a solder ball (52) to each of the terminals. Attaching the solder balls to the terminals is accomplished using a fixture having a number of recesses located in a pattern corresponding to a pattern of the holes in the insulative support member; filling each of the recesses with a solder ball; positioning the insulative support member over the fixture so that an end of each of the terminals contact a corresponding solder ball soldering the solder ball to the end of the terminal while maintaining the generally spherical of the solder ball.

    Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed for removing a multicontact component installed in sockets on a circuit board. The apparatus includes at least one elongated post for providing an upward force on the lower surface of the component to remove the component from the sockets. The longitudinal axis of the post is generally normal to the lower surface of the component. At least one screw is mechanically coupled to the post so that rotation of the screw causes longitudinal movement of the post.

    Abstract: A socket terminal assembly includes a socket body having a first end with a first opening to receive a contact element and a second opening at a second end to receive a pin. A contact element, located in the first opening, is configured to contact the corresponding connection region of a printed circuit board; a pin has an end adapted to contact an electrical contacting area of an integrated circuit package and an opposite end configured to be inserted within the opening of the socket body. A contact spring in the second opening receives the pin and applies a frictional force sufficient to retain the lower end of the pin within the opening of the socket body. A resilient member is disposed within the opening between the contact element and the contact spring. The resilient member applies to the pin and contact element, in response to a downward force applied to the pin or an upward force applied to the contact element, a force sufficient to overcome the frictional force of the contact spring. An intercoupling component includes a socket support member having holes, each hole receiving a corresponding socket terminal assembly.

    Abstract: IMPROVED SOCKET TERMINAL POSITIONING METHOD AND CONSTRUCTION MURRAY JAMES V. An improved method and construction for positioning a plurality of socket terminals on an electrical circuit board in a predetermined configuration prior to the solder connection thereto. A sheet of electrically insulative, flexible, resinous plastic material is provided with a plurality of holes in an array conforming to the desired positioning of the sockets on the circuit boards. The socket terminals are provided with an enlarged generally cylindrical head including an intermediate groove such that the heads extend into the holes and are adapted for frictional snap engagement with the sheet. The sheet with the array of sockets temporarily held thereby is positioned on the circuit board which is then conventionally soldered so as to electrically and mechanically fix the sockets to the board, Thereafter, the sheet may be removed. The enlarged head of the circuit terminal is provided with leading edge sheet contacting surface to enable the terminals to be push positioned into the holes without injuring the sheet.

    Abstract: A socket terminal assembly (18) includes a socket body (40) having a first end (41) with a first opening to receive a contact element (200) and a second opening at a second end to receive a pin (54). A contact element (200), located in the first opening, is configured to contact the corresponding connection region of a printed circuit board (14); a pin has an end (59) adapted to contact an electrical contacting area of an integrated circuit package (12) and an opposite end (58) configured to be inserted within the opening of the socket body (40). A contact spring (46) in the second opening receives the pin (54) and applies a frictional force sufficient to retain the lower end (56) of the pin (54) within the opening of the socket body. A resilient member (60) is disposed within the opening between the contact element (200) and the contact spring (46). The resilient member (60) applies to the pin and contact element (200), in response to a downward force applied to the pin (54) or an upward force applied to the contact element (200), a force sufficient to overcome the frictional force of the contact spring (46). An intercoupling component (16) includes a socket support member having holes (20), each hole (20) receiving a corresponding socket terminal assembly (18).
