ZIF Socket - Definition
The term ZIF Socket is short for Zero Insertion Force Socket. It is a kind of socket for integrated circuits that can be opened with a lever or screw, This then allows the chip to be placed in the socket without the application of downward pressure. The lever or screw of the socket is then closed, causing the socket contacts to grip the chip’s pins. ZIF sockets facilitate frequent insertion and removal of chips, but take up more space, and are more expensive than conventional sockets.
