So when a fellow dumping union member (Coolfox) approached me with the problem, I decided to make it go away. Obviously these are aimed at companies who seem unconcerned with paying sane prices for accessories, but for hobbyists that’s beyond unreasonable. Five hundred pounds for something that does little more than change a pinout. These adapters can be phenomenally expensive for what they are, for example the official adapter for EPM7064/7096 PLCC84 devices to Dataman 48UXP (and similar) is £425, tax taking it past £500. Even when you’ve obtained a reader which has all the device support you need, it will tend to come with a standard ZIF socket and if the device you want to read is a different format, you need an adapter. Reading ROMs and other chips can become an expensive process. ![]()
