IC Pics Using a Standard Digital Camera Update
As you can see, I made a change to my layout. I added a lego brick housing to support the lens assembly along with the camera finally on my missing tripod, then a new ultra-bright flashlight.
Actually what I did was remove these ICs with a heat gun because they were covered in thermo-setting epoxy. Then I used an xacto knife to scrape it off very carefully. I believe sulfuric acid is used because HLC (hydrogen chloride) has a tenancy to dissolve certain kinds of metals.
Awesome article, it was exceptionally helpful! I simply began in this and I'm becoming more acquainted with it better! Cheers, keep doing awesome! write for us
Like the other guy posted great work, but if i may ask how did you strip off the top outer coating?
ReplyDeleteI think either HCL or HNO3. Correct me if I'm wrong. But I'm quite sure it is some type of acid.
