funcky plcc adapters

Post by thecaver99 »

i have my adapter that have arrived and looking at building them.

first-
has anyone else built them and if so which way round do you build them,
from what i can see you solder in the set of inner long pins for each side then the socket then outer pins, would this be right?.

second,
once built do you push them all the way down to the sts board solder in and cut legs down or leave then high on the board?.

Just for future reference there is a note on the site:

So the 'i' button will always take you to the help pages for an item if you're ordering any more parts in the future :)
