Abstract
A BGA socket comprises an insulative cover and a base. The base defines a plurality of passageways therein. A plurality of triangular plates projects from edges of the base. A barb is formed on an edge of each triangular plate. The cover defines a plurality of apertures therein for receiving a plurality of terminals. A plurality of elongate standoffs is formed on a bottom surface of the cover with an opening defined in a lateral face of each standoff. The barbs of the base are slidably received in the slots of the cover thereby connecting the base and the cover together. The standoffs of the cover extend beyond a bottom surface of the base.
