PA40-44-P64-DP-PP – 40-Pin DIP Socket to 44-Pin PLCC Emulator Adapter (Microchip PIC16C64 / 65 / 74 Family)

Overview

PA40-44-P64-DP-PP is a PLCC emulator adapter designed for Microchip PIC16C64, PIC16C64A, PIC16C65, PIC16C65A, PIC16C74, and PIC16C74A devices. As a result, engineers can evaluate 40-pin DIP PIC devices using systems that require a 44-pin PLCC emulator interface.

On the top side, the adapter provides a 40-pin DIP socket on 0.100″ (2.54 mm) pitch. Therefore, it accepts DIP-packaged PIC16C64/65/74-family devices and compatible parts used in development and validation workflows.

On the bottom side, the adapter presents a 44-pin PLCC plug. Consequently, it inserts directly into PLCC emulator sockets without additional cabling.

This adapter uses device-specific wiring rather than full 1:1 pin mapping. Instead, it aligns PIC port, oscillator, power, and PSP signals to the PLCC footprint. The Adapter Wiring table lists the exact connections.
