README
README.mdsockext
Chip socket extension cable adapters. They are primarily intended to be high quality fixtures for invasive chip analysis such as microprobing, laser fault injection, and EM SCA.
Example: BP Microsystems programmers are high quality but physically large. Unfortunately this large size precludes it from being used to read out a chip on my probe station. Solution: extend the socket from the programmer via ribbon cable to an adapter board on the probe station (dipext-pin + dipext-sock + cable).
Projects:
- dipext-sock: converts an IDC connector to a ZIF40 socket. Also adds patch connections
- dipext-pin: converts DIP40 pins into an IDC connector. Also adds patch connections
- dipext-pin-r: like above but flips pins for backside analysis
- WARNING: not updated for new pin order
- dipspy: patch a chip similar to dipext-sock + dipext-pin w/o cables and such
- FIXME: needs rev to use SMD to make solder easier
IMPORTANT: pin order was swapped at this rev to match crimp connectors:
- dipext-sock_r3
- dipext-pin_r6
- WARNING: dipext-pin-r_r1 is not compatible / updated yet

Questions
How big is the Simpleprobecard PCB?
It measures 112 × 137.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Simpleprobecard use?
77 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Simpleprobecard KiCad files?
From the JohnDMcMaster/sockpcb repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is simpleprobecard/simpleprobecard.kicad_pcb and its schematic dipext-pin_r5/dipext-pin_r4.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Simpleprobecard design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask JohnDMcMaster before reusing the design.
