TQFP 32 Socket

[Mark]

Does anyone know where I can buy a 32 TQFP socket, in stock, either as a dip
adaptor or (preferably) just the bare socket. Thanks!

http://www.logicalsys.com/qfp-programming-adapter.asp is probably what
you're looking for. Be prepared for some sticker shock; they ain't
cheap.

Also look at the Beldyn adapters http://www.beldynsys.com/quad.htm. May
be a better alternative for prototyping. Their P535 gets you six each
TQFP-32 to 0.1" DIL adapters for a variety of pin spacings.

Thanks, Rich. I did see these, but the price is ridiculous! Digikey sells an
SI(?) programming board with a socket for $25, but does not sell the socket
separately. I may buy it and strip off the socket. I intend to use it for
programming devices with a bootloader before being inserted in a board, so a
simple adapter won't do.

Take a look at http://www.ebccompany.com/PD32_INFORMATI.htm. I've used
their adapters in the past and they worked well. Not quite as pricy as
the Logical Systems parts.

There's also http://microcontrollershop.com/. I've dealt with them for
some miscellaneous parts and they do carry programming adapters.

Bzzt! Disregard that one. I had PLCCs on the brain since the EBC
adapters that I used ages ago were that form factor.
