Abstract
A contact of an LGA socket comprises a main plate having two guiding and positioning extensions projecting upward from two ends of a beveled upper edge thereof, two lower engagement pins extending downward from two ends of a lower edge of the main plate, and at least one barb formed on each of two opposite vertical sides of the main plate. A resilient C-shaped upper engagement pin curvedly extends upward from a middle portion of the lower edge of the main plate and includes a contacting tip extending upright from one end of the upper engagement pin substantially beyond a horizontal level of the two guiding and positioning extensions.
