Yikes! Know any good PCB technicians?! Can I ask how it came off?
Did it have anything to do with this?! |

Paid product placement ... you're starting to catch the [H] syndrome.
On second thought, I apologize for the insult.

Nemaste, why didn't you just add a bleed point at the bottom of the case? with the top opening open, it would bleed out in no time!

i have seen just the thing
im sorry if this sounds a bit gerneral, but i saw the stuff a while back: there is some sort of solder paste that you just squeze (dosn't matter if it joins the traces) then plong the chip on top (so the legs match the traces) then put it in the oven, as you heat it the solder paste sticks around the metal reconnecting it to the board. im sorry i dont remember what it is called, but it seems the idea solution. search for bakable solder or solder paster and you might find it |

I have some silly putty you can try ... you might get product placement dough from Hasbro too (isn't that who makes the stuff? ... pun intended).

That stuff shure would be handy right about now BTW what is that exactly?

Actually, since you have components on both sides of the board, baking the whole thing to flow the solder again would have...undesirable...results.
You should be OK if you line up the memory module on the solder pads, and simply run an untinned soldering iron along them quickly to get the solder to flow for just an instant. You may wish to practice on an old stick of memory first. (See, there was a reason you kept all your old SIMMS and 16MB DIMMS ) |

Speaking of SIMM's, strange question... I've got a Tyan dual processor server board from about '97, and I've been toying with the idea of setting it up again. Anyway, I've already got both processors mounted, and just now read the Tyan PDF on this old-timer. It's got 8 72-pin EDO SIMM slots. And can handle a GIGABYTE of RAM. Alright, cool and all, but I don't remember EVER seeing a 128mb 72-pin EDO SIMM. Any ideas where I might be able to line one/some up? 5v or 3.3v units are ok. Cheap is even better.
Edit~ Bwa hahahaaa! look what I found Hell on wheels... That's some expensive 72-pin... Also found 128mb 72-pin SIMM's for about 38 bucks US. Have to think about that...

hmm TSOP packages are still easy to solder, just get some thin solder, a thin iron (not too hot), and go for it, you got nothing to loose don't keep the soldering iron on the same place too long though, chip might overheat, although that wouldn't be a problem with a heatsink on it. Also, maybe get an anti-static soldering iron, just to reduce the chance of zapping it

There's only one way your going to get that baby back on again (and for it to work 100%) with one of these http://www.etneo.com/hotair.htm
I use them all the time for SMD work in our lab. Pop it over and I'll see what I can do, LOL.

A 72 pin edo sim goes for about 2 bucks per meg the stuff is expensive cause its not produced in huge amounts any more. Thats why dumpster diving can bring you in few 100 bucks a load if you get lucky and find some old pent mmx comps with ram in them. At 38 bucks i dout its edo is more likly to be standard 72 pin wich goes for about 15 for 64. as for the little soldering project it shouldnt be to hard hell even if you ridge a copule pins you can just use a neddle to break the short circuit. Ive even sodered up some stuff with bout twice the size on the pins of a vid card mem chip bsides like was already said you dont have nothing to loose so go for it and if you screw it up o well no loss just some good practice if you succed you just saved your vid card and by god you will have some serious braging rights i couldnt do nothign that fine im to shaky (nerv damage in left hand sliht but still there) Last edited by novaflare; 12-08-2002 at 05:50 PM. |
