Decapping ICs without acid
Channel: Adam Mayer
Date: 06/05/2017

I wasn't planning to decap ICs today, but this technique occurred to me on the way in and I had to give it a whirl. The first IC (an old 8080) had some cracking in the glass layer but otherwise came out well; the second, an ASIC from a hard drive, is just perfect. Hope to get these under a real scope this weekend.
