Is there such a thing as a ZIF socket for PLCC chips?

Ethan,

I needed to do the same and so I made my own adapter. In my case, I
needed a PLCC32 to DIP to burn a 32Kx8 PLCC OTP PROM, so I took
a 28 pin machine socket and wired it to a thru-hole 32 pin PLCC socket.

Yes, you can certainly buy adapters like this (only more professional)
from most of the companies that make programmers, but they are pretty
pricey -- probably $100+.
