Detailed explanation-1: -A zero insertion force (ZIF) socket is a type of integrated circuit (IC) socket which is designed so that it requires no force at all, except gravity, to insert an IC into the socket.
Detailed explanation-2: -All recent socketed motherboards have a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket. As its name implies, the ZIF socket allows a chip with hundreds of pins to be seated easily. Older friction-fit sockets made it nearly impossible to seat a complex chip with hundreds of pins properly.
Detailed explanation-3: -Zero insertion force (ZIF) is a type of IC socket or electrical connector that requires very little (but not literally zero) force for insertion.
Detailed explanation-4: -Short for zero insertion force socket, the ZIF socket was designed by Intel and included a small lever to insert and remove the computer processor. Using the lever, lets you add and remove a computer processor without any tools and requires no force (zero force).
