Abstract
Provided is a carrier assembly for an integrated circuit. The assembly includes a carrier having a matrix of island contacts interconnected by respective serpentine members to allow resilient deflection between such contacts, said matrix surrounding a passage defined through the carrier. The assembly also includes a retainer for operatively locating the integrated circuit within said passage so that the integrated circuit is electrically connected to the carrier.
