Abstract
A connector or receptacle is described for connecting a leadless integrated circuit package to an interconnection medium such as a printed circuit board without the need for soldering connections. A significant feature of the connector is that all of its electrical contacts may be engaged or probed individually or collectively from the package side of the interconnection board for diagnostic and test purposes. Probe means suitable for use with the connector are also described.
