(2) an interposer, there are positioning holes, contact pads and conducting wires in this interposer. (3) an adapter unit, the unit is capable of positioning the integrated circuit device and includes a depressor to suppress or release the integrated circuit. (4) a cover unit, the cover unit is coupled to said adapter and is capable of moving up and down vertically and drive the depressor to press or release the integrated circuit device. The modularized socket can fit the integrated circuit devices with different sizes and pin assignment, also much easier to repair.
