Abstract

A carrier system for PGA components comprising a carrier frame and a removable retaining means for capturing a PGA component against an insulating plate in the carrier frame. Bumpers at opposite ends of the carrier dissipate mechanical shocks to protect the component. A removable alignment means coacts with the carrier frame to facilitate the positioning of a PGA component on the insulating plate. A removal means facilitates the disengagement of the removable retaining means from the carrier frame when it is appropriate to remove the PGA component.
