Abstract
A socket for mounting a processor and/or a board has a substrate with a built in socket. The socket has conductive, elastically deformable terminals. The socket may be mounted to a processor and a board without using conventional surface mount technology, instead providing a mechanical contact mechanism between the socket and the board or processor. An adhesive layer may also be used to connect the socket to a processor and/or a board.
