PA40-44-01-DP, Z86C21, E21, 40 DIP to 44 Pin PLCC

The PA40-44-01-DP and PA40-44-01-DP-PP are part of our Z86CXX Emulator Adapter family, designed to convert Zilog Z86C21 / Z86E21 / Z86C61 / Z86E61 devices from a 40-pin DIP format to a 44-pin PLCC footprint.

These adapters provide a precise signal mapping that accommodates the specific requirements of these Zilog microcontrollers, including internal NCs (no-connects) on pins 6, 17, 28, and 39.

Whether you’re building out a legacy control system, debugging embedded firmware, or replacing a failed part in the field, this adapter provides a reliable, drop-in conversion path.

🧰 Choose the Right Socket for Your Workflow

ZIF Socket (PA40-44-01-DP):
Ideal for development and lab environments where devices are frequently inserted and removed.

LIF Socket (PA40-44-01-DP-PP):
Cost-effective and stable for production or long-term use in embedded applications.

Both versions share the same wiring, mechanical footprint, and include 0.018” round DIP pins for secure through-hole mounting.
