Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Good techniques for cleaning up old artwork?

2017-02-17 by Roland Harriston

Jim Pruitt:

Yes. In the "old days" Molex only had one or two products. Now, they 
cover the field.
I had some of those plastic "hoods" that slipped over the pins  but I 
never used them.
Once the IC is properly inserted into the pins, there is virtually no 
movement of the
pins or the IC.  So I never thought that the covers were necessary.

Thanks for refreshing my memory.

Regards,

Roland F. Harriston
