ZIF Socket - Definition
ZIF Socket is an abbreviation for Zero Insertion Force Socket. It is a chip socket with a locking lever or screw mechanism. The holes in the chip socket are large enough to allow the chip (perhaps an EPROM or a coprocessor) to drop in easily thereby avoiding possible damage to the chip’s delicate pins. The lever is then operated, or the screw turned, to clamp the chip firmly in place.
