ZIF sockets refer to the term, `zero insertion force', which is to say that the part being placed in the socket will usually just `drop in' at which point, some type of clamping system is used to hold the part in place. This is especially beneficial to parts where the leads could easily be damaged or malformed.

Where is oil plug for Jeep Cherokee?
On the bottom of the oil pan like on every car? usually its either 13, 14,15mm sockets/wrenches.
Why would the right turn signal of a 93 Dodge Shadow start blinking and then the frequency of blinking is reduced and sometimes stops?
Change the flasher unit, change bulbs, bad ground, short in the wiring. i found in mine it was a bad ground at the pig tail what the bulb goes into. I had the same problems with both tail lights and back up lights. It was the ground on the sockets on all of the sockets. I just soldiered the ground wire to the side of the metal socket on all of them. It worked fine.
How do you check fuse with multimeter?
The current in the socket can not checked directly because the sockets are connected in parallel to the supplu and we can not measure current in parallel it is always measure in series so connect a lod to socket after that use ammeter in series to measure electric current.
Where is the crank control module located in a 97 jeep grand Cherokee?
If it is a 6 Cly. the most likely location is at about 11:00 on the bell housing looking forward. Very hard to get to and drooped bolts may end up in your transmission bell housing. Magnetic sockets and small hands advised.
What is wrong when your interior and tail lights go out and put a new fuse in then they come on and go out again?
Overload or short to ground in circuit Remove all bulbs and check sockets, Replace buklbs one at a time until fuse blows to determine where problem exists Then investigate that area for bad socket or wire frayed to ground
Current processor sockets are called?
Zero Insertion Force(ZIF)
What are current processor sockets called?
Answer: Zero Insertion Force (ZIF)
Which is the generic term for sockets?
zero insertion force meaning exactly what it says. the answer is zif
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.
Name 5 different ZIF sockets used on modern computers?
bla bla bla bla bla
What is used to mount the motherboard and to prevent it from touching he metal portions of the case?
Preventing the motherboard from touching the case are stand-offs.
Is it true that current processor sockets called zero insertion force or ZIF sockets have a small lever on the side that lifts the processor up and out of the socket?
The lever doesn't lift the processor out of the socket; it takes the shearing force off of the processor pins inside of the holes, so that the processor can be lifted out, or inserted, with no pressure necessary. When you lower the lever on a ZIF socket, the pins are clamped down on under the socket plastic housing.
What is zif and pata are they the same type of drive connections?
ZIF stands for "Zero Insertion Force."There are 2 industry uses for the term ZIF ; one is in motherboard CPU sockets, the other is for ultraportable harddrives, like used in netbooks and notebooks.Most types of CPU sockets are ZIF sockets. There is generally a lever which can be activated to release the pins of the CPU from the socket and allow it to be inserted or removed without damage. There is no single connection ZIF connection, it is merely a concept in connections, with a different layout for different types of chips.ZIF, for harddrives is an ultra-thin ribbon cable with a rigid end that slides into the harddrive connector. Most ZIF drives so far are PATA command set and are physically 1.3" or 1.8" drives.There are converters available to use CompactFlash cards in ZIF slots, and there are converters available to use ZIF PATA harddrives in 2.5" and 3.5" PATA devices.PATA stands for "Parallel Advanced Technology Attachment" as opposed to the other common ATA standard SATA, which is serial instead of parallel. PATA is a 40-pin data connector used for hard drives, cdrom/dvd drives, and other types of integrated data storage.SATA does not use a ZIF Connector (so far) , for micro-sized devices like 1.3" and 1.8" and even 2.5" harddrives , they use something called MicroSATA, which puts all 13 pins of SATA cables on a thin card-edge connector.
What has a lever that is used to lift the processor up and out of the socket?
zero insertion force sockets (see page 178 in A+ Guide to Managing and Maintaining Your PC) "PGA, SPGA, and LGA sockets are all square or nearly square. So that even force is applied when inserting the processor in the socket, all current processor sockets have a lever on the side of the socket. These sockets are called zero insertion force (ZIF) sockets, and this lever is used to lift the processor up and out of the socket. Push the lever down and the processor moves into its pin or land connectors with equal force over the entire housing."
What type of socket ensures that even force is applied to the processor?
ZIF (Zero Insertion Force)
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.
Different kinds of CPU?
Well there's the GPU, a specialist in graphics There are multi-core CPU there are integrated ones there are ones with ZIF sockets and some without really the are all the same in principle but don't vary widely in areas other than power usage and speed.
