Alternate low-profile IC socket option for internal 512k upgrade

Post by okto »

I found a socket solution that doesn't require cutting the keyboard frame. Mill-Max 0548 receptacles install in the existing PCB holes and only add about a millimeter of height vs the soldered-in chip.

Mouser link
RS Online link (I think that's the go-to supplier for UK/EU folks?)
