Oooops. Tuner help needed. - 27/02/2005 22:53
I'm a good bit into my tuner assembly, but I've created a bit of a problem for myself. I've gone and soldered the DS1489 in backwards. It was just at the edge of my abilities to get a wrong-valued capacitor out, I don't think I'm going to be able to get the 14 pin chip out on my own.
Is there a good technique for getting it out? Is there any easy source of this chip so I can just clip the legs off and put a new one in? Digi-Key doesn't seem to stock them, and I couldn't find any at Frys, though I might not have known what to look for.
Thanks,
