This unit
The BP Microsystems SM84UP is a manual PLCC socket module engineered to program and test Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier devices across a wide range of pin counts and package variants. This interchangeable template-based system supports PLCC devices from 20 to 84 pins, accommodating over 5,000 device types through individual insert plate configurations. The module interfaces directly with BP Microsystems programmers equipped with 48 to 240 pins, requiring a minimum driver count equal to the target device pin count.
Technical Specifications
Pin count support: 20 to 84 pins
Device compatibility: Over 5,000 PLCC devices
Programmer pin range: 48 to 240 pins (host programmer must have ≥ device pin count drivers)
Standard templates included: 20, 28, 32, 44, 52, 68, and 84 pin configurations
Signal delivery: Stripline architecture eliminates overshoot, noise, and ground bounce for vector testing accuracy
Continuity testing: Full pin continuity verification supported
Key Features
Manual socket operation with indexed orientation alignment
Insert plates (templates) accommodate specific PLCC pin counts and package geometry
Front-right index positioning guides correct chip orientation with beveled index side alignment
Pin one mark aligns toward programmer front
Pressure plate reversible via four 0.059 inch Allen screws for thinner device accommodation
Shim compatibility for 32-pin PLCC thickness adjustment
High-quality signal and ground delivery for reliable testing
Compatibility & Integration Designed exclusively for BP Microsystems programmers with sufficient driver capacity. Socket accommodates various PLCC package types and geometries. Module plugs onto programmer with lid hinge toward rear; template edge marking pin count aligns with programmer front. Grasp module chassis on left and right sides during removal to avoid socket damage.
BP Microsystems SM84UP — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the BP Microsystems SM84UP. Calibration covers analog input channel accuracy and offset at all gain settings, analog output accuracy, digital I/O logic threshold verification, sample rate and timing accuracy, and trigger and synchronization bus functional verification. NI CompactRIO and PXI chassis also undergo backplane trigger line integrity check.. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common BP Microsystems SM84UP faults: power supply failure (cRIO-9073/9074), C-series slot connector wear, PXI chassis fan failure, GPIB interface failure on VXI controllers, BIOS/EEPROM corruption. NI CompactRIO most common faults are power supply failure on older cRIO-9073/9074 chassis and C-series module slot connector wear from repeated hot-swap cycles. PXI chassis fan failure is the most common wear item — chassis fans are field-replaceable. VXI embedded controllers most commonly develop EEPROM corruption and GPIB interface failure.

BP Microsystems SM84UP calibration cost
NIST-traceable calibration for the BP Microsystems SM84UP is $450 (standard — pass/fail certificate and calibration sticker) or $650 (full measured data at every test point, reference standards documented, traceability chain included). Calibration for this instrument covers analog input channel accuracy and offset at all gain settings, analog output accuracy, digital I/O logic threshold verification, sample rate and timing accuracy, and trigger and synchronization bus functional verification. NI CompactRIO and PXI chassis also undergo backplane trigger line integrity check.. Turnaround is 1 to 3 business days after receipt. See full calibration details →
