source for 100pin PZ SMT to ZIF adaptor

Don McManus

I'm having trouble bricking my 28069 when trying to enable code security. I will post separately on that issue.

We have few prototype boards, and I'd like to be able to change the chip out faster(I've bricked 3 so far, and I have to ship it to my SMT facility to get it changed each time)

What is a good source for stock of a ZIF to SMT adaptor for the 100-pin PZ and/or PZP package of the 28069? Its just regular SMT package on our prototype with no provisions for a socket.

I did a little research and found some candidates, but don't want to waste time buying the wrong one.

Thanks in advance,

Don

Hi Don,

Don't you feel this would be a bit messy work ? :)
I guess we should instead work on the other issue.

Hi Gautam,

Its all ready quite messy. :) We're In a hurry, so running down both options this week, if possible. I am going through existing posts on the password issue, but haven't found a solution yet. An adapter is cheaper, and faster, than overnighting boards back and forth all week.

Thanks,
Don

Don, aprilog seems to be a nice vendor but pretty expensive.

Adapters seem to be a cheaper option but your board would not be compatible, right?
