Sorry guys, idle board was money lost so did a quick fix trace cut. Any good tips on how to desolder the chip? looks like it's soldered to the board with the ground pad. I have a 50W Weller soldering station. Is it possible to easily desolder with a soldering iron or do I need hot air tools?
I desoldered some avalon chips using an electric skillet fry pan by just putting the pcb in the pan and lift the chips off when the solder melted.
