Removable and replaceable dual-sided connector pin interposer

A system comprising:

• a pinless socket comprising a first plurality of pad connectors;
• a pinless integrated circuit component comprising a second plurality of pad connectors;
• an interposer comprising a substrate comprising a first side opposite a second side;
• the interposer comprising a first plurality of flexible pins protruding from the first side of the substrate, the first plurality of flexible pins for installing in the first plurality of pad connectors of the pinless socket;
• the interposer comprising a second plurality of flexible pins protruding from the second side of the substrate, the second plurality of flexible pins for installing in the second plurality of pad connectors of the pinless integrated circuit component;
• a first presence pin specified from among the first plurality of flexible pins and set to ground opposite a second pin from among the second plurality of flexible pins not specified for an electrical connection, wherein the first presence pin is specified to align with a particular pad connector from among the first plurality of pad connectors comprising an input port of the pinless socket, wherein the first plurality of flexible pins except the first presence pin are electrically connected to the second plurality of flexible pins through the substrate to provide a plurality of electrical contact points between the pinless socket and the pinless integrated circuit component, and wherein the first plurality of flexible pins are installed in the first plurality of pad connectors of the pinless socket;
• a pull up resistor installed on the input port and operative to set a signal for a presence bit to a first logical bit if the interposer is properly installed;
• and
• an input/output controller for reading the signal from the input port;
• wherein the input/output controller is operative to output a signal indicating a proper installation of the interposer if the presence bit is set to the first logical bit in the signal read from the input port;
• and
• wherein the input/output controller is operative to output a signal indicating installation of the interposer if the presence bit is set to a second logical bit in the signal read from the input port.
