Group,
I remember reading a article many years ago, I think it was in BYTE, about salvaging IC's from discarded Printed Circuit Boards by using a chip puller and a torch on the back. Has anyone actually done this? I guess now you could try with a hot air gun?
I saw someone who would use a blow torch to salvage chips. He did it outside. It was crazy, but all the chips fell off and recovered them. He obviously had a lot of practice with this.
