This product is intended to allow a 2732 EPROM to be placed into a 2532 EPROM socket or a 2532 EPROM to be placed into a 2732 EPROM socket. Fitting I.C. pins for IC1 and a socket for IC2 allows a 2732 to be plugged into a 2532 socket, whilst fitting I.C. pins for IC2 and a socket for IC1 allows a 2532 to be plugged into a 2732 socket. It is recommended that “round pin headers” be used for the I.C. pins as they will plug directly into standard I.C. sockets without stressing them which would result in potential damage to the socket. A low-profile ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) socket is ideal for use as the actual socket for this device if repeated E.P.R.O.M. insertion and removal is expected. Otherwise, a low profile D.I.P. (Dual Inline Pin) socket should be used. The 2732 has an output enable signal in addition to the chip enable signal. In most cases, the output enable signal can simply be connected to ground. However, it may sometimes be desirable to connect the ouput enable signal to the chip enable signal. Jumpers JP1 and JP2 allow these settings. If JP1 is fitted, then the ouput enable will be connected to the chip enable. If JP2 is fitted, then the ouput enable will be connected to GND. JP1 and JP2 should NEVER be fitted at the same time - one or the other, but not both. In most cases, fitting JP2 will suffice.

The Little Engineers is a project began in 2011 by Robert Allen Turner (hereafter, I or Me), for the benefit of foster children and their families (foster and biological). The original intent was simply to provide a means of creating videos with the foster families such that the biological parents did not completely miss out on their children growing up. Providing simple to construct kits seemed a logical choice as a subject for such videos and that is primarily what I attempt to develop for use in such videos. This also makes the process educational. This is a difficult undertaking, as each case must be handled on an individual basis and any such videos and communications must be scrutinized and approved on a per case basis by the case workers, et alia in charge. Although this makes such an undertaking extremely difficult, it is a neccessity in order to protect the children. Some are, after all, being protected from abusive family members and so on. So there has to be a very strict set of protocols in place. This has prevented me from fully launching The Little Engineers over the past eight years, but I remain commited to the project.
