Do you haappen to have the part number for that? And
know of a supplier
that sells 1-off qunanitites. When I looked at the commpon suppliers in
the UK< I couldn't find any prototypiong-friemndly ARMs :-)

The reason I ask about the supplier is that I rememebr
som years ago
when I was doing a commerical design, findin the ideal chip for the job.
I thn found that _nobody_ would sell me less than a tube quantity (which
as they wwre nearly \pounds 200 each was way over budget). This was after
I'd done all the rest of the design...

Actually, it's signlly harder to wire (you
can't put a PLCC socket on
stripboard, for example), but certianly no real problem.
You can, I do it many times. Want a photo?
You can plug the PLCC socket into wire-wrap pin strips
(eitehr the proper
ones, or cut apart DIL wire-wrap sockets) and then wire-wrap to that.
Yes, you ahve an extra contact which may reduce long-time reliability,
but this is a prototype, right?
Yep
