Testing IC's

This video describes a method for testing salvaged IC's . It uses a T48 programmer along with a software program. Note, at 3:00 I placed the IC at the wrong end of the programmer. The T48 and the TL866+ have pin one at opposite ends of the zif socket. It didn't harm the chip but be aware of the difference.

I'm SOOOOO glad to see you are back in the shop! So, where do you get the programmer and where do you download the software you are using? Please supply some links.🙂

Hi eie_for_you, Thank you for the kind words. I bought the programmer from Aliexpress. It is an XCecu pro T48. The software, XgproV1267_setup.rar , was downloaded from www.mediafire.com/file/q808n105ibexkl8/XgproV1266A_Setup.rar/file .
