 		 #145557 - but this looks like - OK let's call it DIP...
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Was the spacing 0.100" between pins and 0.300"/0.600" between rows?

I don't think I have seen such. The only IDC in this density (0.100" spacing) I know is for the flat cable (either as the connector, 0.100" between rows, or as a plug into DIP sockets for emulators and such, 0.300"/0.600" between rows), which I don't believe would hold lose wires well enough. The lose-wire IDC's I know are either 0.150" or bigger spacing, and all of them are single-row; either IDC on both ends, or PCB, or connector.

I wonder what's the reason this technology did not evolve further. The patch-panels used in telephony and networking are all based on this technology and appears to be solid and reliable - and, for prototyping, it's certainly faster than to use the "plug-type" breadboard. I don't know anything about vibrations and such, but that's not an issue for a rapid prototype which would sit on a benchtop throughout its whole lifetime...

   How many points for these?            01/01/70 00:00      
      +10 points each...            01/01/70 00:00      
      How about "multiwire"            01/01/70 00:00      
         I remember those            01/01/70 00:00

   yes            01/01/70 00:00      
   Some serious wire-wrapping for you...            01/01/70 00:00      
      thanks            01/01/70 00:00      
      I see the wires, but where's the wrapping?            01/01/70 00:00      
         WHAT??? You want details?            01/01/70 00:00
