Technically, he just has to lift the offending pins. My recollection is the transmitters invert, so that might be an issue. -----Original Message----- From: Robert LaJeunesse <[email protected]> Sender: [email protected] Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2011 10:08:55 To: Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement<[email protected]> Reply-To: Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [time-nuts] Electronics Question
One TSOP trick: Use fine desolder braid & just enough solder to bridge all the leads on one side, melt all the solder on that side, then with a pointed hobby knife lightly pry the chip up just enough to disconnect the whole row of leads. Repeat for other side using tweezers to gently lift the chip off. Clean things off and both chip and board are reusable.
