Claims8
A chip scale package socket for first and second chip scale package types of different sizes, comprising:
- a body having a first bay comprising a first side and a second side for receiving a first chip scale package type of a first size and a second bay extending from the first side and the second side of the first bay for receiving a second chip scale package type of a second different size;
- electrical connection probes extending from outside to the first bay;
- two tong members formed in the body movable between closed and opened positions to secure or release the chip scale package types;
- and
- a frame switch formed on the body movable between a first position and a second position so as to move the tong members between the closed and opened positions, respectively.

A chip scale package socket, comprising:
- a body comprising an opening for receiving at least first and second chip packages having different sizes, wherein the opening is defined by a plurality of planar wall sections divided into at least a first set and a second set of wall sections, the planar wall sections joining neighboring planar wall sections so as to define a closed geometric form, wherein the first set of wall sections receives the first chip package size and wherein the second set of wall sections receives the second chip package size;
- electrical connection probes extending from outside to the opening;
- two tong members formed in the body movable between closed and opened positions to secure or release the chip package;
- and
- a frame switch formed on the body movable between a first position and a second position so as to move the tong members between the closed and opened positions, respectively.
