Zero Insertion Force socket
- Zero Insertion Force socket
A specially designed chip socket that makes replacing a chip easier and safer. To change a chip in a ZIF socket, you raise a lever beside the socket to free the original chip's pins from the socket. You then slide the old chip out and slide in the replacement chip, taking care to align the pins and holes. Finally, you lower the lever again. A ZIF socket minimizes damage to the delicate pins that connect the chip to the rest of the system.
