Abstract:
1. A method for assembling a semiconductor device socket comprising the steps of: overlaying a supporting plate for fixing stationary terminal portions of contact terminals for electrically connecting electrode sections of a semiconductor device to an electro-conductive layer of a wiring board on a first position-restricting plate and a second position-restricting plate with each other while coinciding attachment holes of said supporting plate with holes of said first position-restricting plate and said second position-restricting plate, inserting a tip end of the stationary terminal section of the contact terminal into a common gap in the attachment holes of said supporting plate and the holes of said first position-restricting plate and said second position-restricting plate overlaid with each other and supporting the end of the stationary terminal section of the contact terminal by the peripheral edges of the holes, and engaging a portion being engaged of the stationary terminal section with the attachment hole of said supporting plate while maintaining the grip of the end of the stationary terminal section of the contact terminal.
