Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards techniques and configurations to provide solder contacts for electrical connection in socket assemblies. In one embodiment, a solder contact may be disposed on the bottom surface of a die package such that the solder contact is conductively coupled to electrical contacts of the die package. The solder contacts may be disposed to be coupled to pins of a socket assembly, to provide conductive coupling of the electrical contacts of the die package and the pins of the socket assembly. The solder may be selected to be sufficiently soft to provide for better electrical conduction. The pins may also be configured to penetrate the solder contact to provide for better electrical conduction. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
An integrated circuit (IC) package assembly, comprising:
A socket assembly, comprising a plurality of pins configured to couple to a plurality of surface electrical contacts disposed on a surface of a die package, wherein a plurality of solder contacts provide an electrical pathway between individual pins of the plurality of pins and surface electrical contacts of the plurality of surface electrical contacts;
A computing device comprising:
A method comprising:
