By the way, in the conventional socket pin, the solder ball 7 is provided in the contact hole 2 of the contact piece portion 1.
Is in contact with each other, there is a problem in that, for example, when flux or the like is attached to the surface of the solder ball 7, contact failure occurs and inspection becomes impossible. Since the inverted U-shaped spring piece portion 4 is indispensable in order to impart the spring property for adjusting the contact force (pressing force) of the solder ball 7, the entire length becomes long and the electrical characteristics (inductance ), Is easily affected by noise, etc. and is also inferior in reliability, and requires high electrical characteristics. For example, high-frequency products with an inductance of 2 nanohenries or less could not be inspected at all. .

The present IC socket pin is constructed as described above, and a large number of the socket pins are regularly arranged and mounted on the IC socket body 9. Then, in the inspection of the BGA package by this, the solder balls 7 of the BGA package 6 are electrically contacted with the respective socket pins from above, and the socket pins and the measuring means are electrically connected to each other to inspect the BGA package. In this case, when the solder ball 7 comes into contact with the spherical contact concave surface 11 of the socket pin by the vertical pressing force from above, the spring seat portion 1
Since 0 is given an elastic restoring force by the cross-shaped split groove 13, the solder ball 7 slides while pushing the spherical contact concave surface 11 in the direction of the solid arrow B (lateral direction) shown in FIG. Further, even if flux or the like is attached to the solder balls 7 by the so-called wiping operation of removing foreign substances and other substances and making contact, the coating is broken by the sliding contact and comes into contact, so that reliable electrical contact is made. .
