#126938 - plugs are pretty expensive
Responding to: ???'s previous message
You can get one from the emulator's manufacturers, or maybe from other sources, but count on that they are pretty expensive (= veeeeeery expensive).

If you need only one for your own purposes, I've told a trick (but never tried myself) to get an old processor in PLCCxx, drill a hole through the center (use a continuity tester to make sure the chip is away and there are no shorts between the pins), optionally put a screw through the hole to facilitate removal, put it upside down and solder carefully thin wires to the leads (for more sophisticated approach, you can solder it on a PCB made for this purpose).

Otherwise, if the socket is thru-hole, you'd be better off removing the socket and replacing it by appropriately modified rows of precision IC DIL sockets (or similar connector-like stuff).
