Abstract
A tray for storage and transportation of multiple pin grid array (PGA) and K6 integrated circuit components, each having a planar housing and plurality of terminal pins arranged in spaced rows. The tray has a framework for supporting upstanding ribs that interfit between adjacent integrated circuit components. Each upstanding rib lies along an axis in one of two sets of intersecting axes and aligns with and fits between certain spaced rows to position the terminal pin in precise alignment with the tray. The rib axes are intersecting and oblique to the general tray orientation.
