What (who) is high-force socket - definition

ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR THAT REQUIRES VERY LITTLE FORCE FOR INSERTION, OFTEN USED FOR IC AND CPU SOCKETS

ZIFS; Zero Insertion Force; ZIF socket

Network socket

INTERNAL ENDPOINT FOR SENDING OR RECEIVING DATA WITHIN A NODE ON A COMPUTER NETWORK

Server socket; Server Socket; Raw socket; Raw sockets; Full raw sockets; Ip socket; Datagram socket; Stream socket; Stream Sockets; Datagram Sockets; Internet sockets; Socket pair; Client socket; Socket address; TCP sockets; Network sockets; Rawsocket; Internet socket; Socket API; Socket connection; UDP socket; TCP socket; UDP sockets

A network socket is a software structure within a network node of a computer network that serves as an endpoint for sending and receiving data across the network. The structure and properties of a socket are defined by an application programming interface (API) for the networking architecture.

ZIF socket

¦ noun a socket for electronic devices that is designed not to damage them during insertion.

Origin

acronym from zero insertion force.

Zero Insertion Force

<hardware> (ZIF) A kind of socket for integrated circuits. A ZIF socket can be opened and closed by means of a lever or screw. When open, there the chip may be placed in the socket without any pressure at all, the socket is then closed, causing its contacts to grip the pins of the chip. Such sockets are used where chips must be inserted and removed frequently, such as in test equipment. They are more expensive and usually take up more space than conventional IC sockets.

Wikipedia

Zero insertion force

Zero insertion force (ZIF) is a type of IC socket or electrical connector that requires very little (but not literally zero) force for insertion. With a ZIF socket, before the IC is inserted, a lever or slider on the side of the socket is moved, pushing all the sprung contacts apart so that the IC can be inserted with very little force - generally the weight of the IC itself is sufficient and no external downward force is required. The lever is then moved back, allowing the contacts to close and grip the pins of the IC. ZIF sockets are much more expensive than standard IC sockets and also tend to take up a larger board area due to the space taken up by the lever mechanism. Typically, they are only used when there is a good reason to do so.
