Abstract
An IC carrier comprising first and second blocks, the second block is relatively movably engaged in the second block; first and second side regulation portions formed on the first and second blocks, respectively, and adapted to pressure contact opposite side faces of an IC in the sense of a lateral direction of the IC, respectively; a bottom regulation portion formed on at least one of the first and second side regulation portions and adapted to support a bottom face of the IC captured between the first and second side regulation portions; and a spring disposed between the first and second blocks such that the first and second blocks are normally biased and relatively slid, by a resilient force of the spring, in a direction reducing a distance between the first and second side regulation portions, so that the first and second side regulation portions are brought into pressure contact with the opposite side faces of the IC when the IC is inserted into the carrier.
