Abstract
A receptacle for stacked support of electronic packages provides ready address/selection of each package by disposing vertically spaced receptacle contact sets in offset relation longitudinally of an elongate package-receiving channel. Package stacking is facilitated by a fixed support for a lower package and a further support selectively movable into the package-receiving channel for supporting an upper package. Zero insertion force is provided by an actuator operable to displace receptacle contact sets from noninterfering disposition with respect to the channel into engagement with package contacts.
