Generic Pin Converters and adapters that can be used with any microcontroller emulator or microcontroller device, independent of manufacturer.
Microcontroller specific pin adapters are listed under the applicable architecture/manufacturer main-categories, e.g. Dallas 8051 specific pin adapters can be found under: 8051->Emulators->Dallas8051.
SOIC, SSOP and QFP adapter kits typically contain two parts: a footer that is soldered onto the target board in place of the actual microcontroller and a DIP or PLCC tower that plugs on its bottom side into the footer and accepts on top an emulation header or microcontroller with a matching DIP/PLCC connector/package.
