Abstract
A socket for an integrated circuit has a shielding housing that is open on one side facing the circuit board, with a frame and a cover to accommodate the integrated circuit and a socket insert, with the cover being openable to remove the integrated circuit. For better heat dissipation, the cover may be designed as a heat sink provided with cooling ribs and optionally supplemented by a heat sink on the opposite side of the circuit board.
