Abstract

An electrical connector is essentially composed of a pair of half housings opposite to each other in a longitudinal direction to commonly form a receiving cavity for receiving a CPU. Each half housing is equipped with a plurality of contacts with corresponding contacting sections upwardly extending into the receiving cavity for mating with the CPU. A single pick-up cap includes a plate with a plurality of claws adapted to be engaged within locking recesses in exterior sides of the half housings, a plurality of positioning blocks adapted to extend into the receiving cavity so as to cooperate with the claws to sandwich the periphery wall of the housing therebetween in the longitudinal direction for securing the half housings to the pick-up cap. Therefore, both the pair of half housings may be grasped by the single pick-up cap for mounting and soldering to PCB at the same time.
