PLCC Extraction Tool |
Special tools are required to remove PLCC type chips from their sockets. Some are rather expensive. We've found one that is very handy and inexpensive. Made by AMP, this tool is small and flat with a small hook at one end. The hook is inserted in the two slots at opposite corners of the PLCC socket used with the Zorin HC11 kits. The HC11 is gently pried from the socket gently by using the tool on one corner, and then the other. This is repeated a few times until the chip is free. |
