Abstract
A plurality of contact terminals include movable contact portions disposed slantingly oppositely to each other, and the movable contact portion of the contact terminal is disposed movably up to the neighborhood of a position adjacent to the movable contact portion of the adjacent contact terminal. In this situation, when the electrode of the semiconductor device is released from the contact terminal, the electrode is pressed by the back of the movable contact portion in the direction where the electrode is separated from the movable contact portion.
Claims13
A semiconductor device-socket comprising:
- a plurality of contact terminals, each of which includes a first movable contact portion and a second movable contact portion slantwise disposed and opposite to the direction of movement of the first movable contact, for selectively pinching an electrode portion of a semiconductor device in cooperation with said first movable contact, and electrically connects said electrode portion of said semiconductor device;
- a supporting member for supporting proximal ends of said plurality of contact terminals such that said first movable contact portion of said adjacent one of said contact terminals and said second movable contact portion of the other contact terminal are adjacent to each other;
- a contact deviation member disposed relatively movably with respect to said supporting member, said contact deviation member including a press section for pressing said first movable contact portion in such manner as to press said first movable contact portion of said contact terminal against said second movable contact portion so as to bring said first movable contact portion into or out of close proximity to said second movable contact portion and separate said electrode portion of said semiconductor device from said second movable contact;
- and
- driving means for relatively moving said contact deviation member with respect to said supporting member.
A semiconductor device-socket comprising:
- a plurality of contact terminals, each of which includes a first movable contact portion and a second contact portion for selectively pinching an electrode portion of said semiconductor device in cooperation with said first movable contact portion and electrically connects said electrode portion of said semiconductor device;
- a positioning member including an accommodation portion for accommodating said semiconductor device therein, said positioning member for relatively positioning said electrode portion of said semiconductor device with respect to said first movable contact portion and said second movable contact portion;
- a supporting member for supporting said proximal ends of said plurality of contact terminals;
- a contact deviation member disposed relatively movably with respect to said supporting member, said contact deviation member including a press section for pressing said first movable contact portion of said contact terminal section in such a manner as to press said first movable contact portion against said second movable contact portion so as to bring said first movable contact portion into or out of close proximity to said second movable contact portion;
- and
- a press member including a press surface section for pressing an outer configuration section of said semiconductor device in a direction in which said electrode portion of said semiconductor device accommodated in said accommodation portion is separated from said second movable contact portion, when said first movable contact portion is separated from said second movable contact portion by said contact deviation member.
