Abstract
A tray for storage and transportation of multiple pin grid array (PGA) integrated circuit components. The tray has a lattice framework that defines discrete storage pocket areas. Each storage pocket area comprises a base support that spans portions of the framework and includes upstanding ribs that engage the integrated circuit component. The locus of the upstanding ribs of a given set constitutes a rectangle or square that is concentric with and spaced from the locus of other sets of upstanding ribs. Depending terminal pins from the housing lie between individual ones of the upstanding ribs. The trays are stackable.
