How do ZIF sockets make it easier to remove and replace the processor?

"ZIF" is an anconym for "Zero Insersion Force". For any processor, or other integrated circuit designed for insertion into a socket, the force required to insert or remove it is proportional to the number of pins on the chip. As each pin needs a secure connection to it's socket, the force required on modern processors, having close to a thousand pins; to insert into or remove from a socket reliably and without damage; would be extremely high and would likely cause physical damage if done by hand. A ZIF socket utilizes a clamping mechanism whereby the socket contacts can be opened using a lever. This allows a processor, with hundreds of fragile pins, to simply be dropped into the socket with no force. Then, the ZIF socket is clamped or "locked" using the lever which firmly clamps all pins tightly. In this manner, a ZIF socket makes difficult and potentially damaging insertion or removal of a processor or other integrated circuit, a simple, easy, and safe task.

What type of memory does the LGA1155 socket work with. Which socket was in designed to place?

From the text book "Comptia A+ Guide to Managing and Maintaining your PC" 8th Edition by Jean Andrews. It works with the DDR3 memory and was designed to replace the LGA1156 socket.


What is the purpose of the ZIF socket?

ZIF or "Zero Insertion Force" sockets allow the socket to open to receive the pin without pressure and then close around the pin to give a good, solid connection.
