eZ430-F2013 mounting on a breadboard

Development Boards MicroMod
1

So I have my little USB programmer and the snap-in module, but I want to code and stick the chip on a breadboard. The signals are going high and low like I want (at least, my multimeter says so) but it isn’t terribly useful unless I can connect external power and the rest of my stuff to it.

I was thinking to get some header pins like what jumpers go on, but … is there a better way than soldering them on? Wire wrap connectors? Left over resistor leads?

If there’s an easy way to hook it into a standard DIP socket, that would be awesome.

Two rows of 0.1 inch spaced square pins are very standard.

Pins, sockets, and ribbon cable connectors are available. The

only trouble, if any, is that after you soldered pins or sockets

on the target board, it will not fit inside the plastic cover.
