Mundane - Hi, is there a way to order a replace...

Hi, is there a way to order a replacement pcb for the snap75? I messed up on the IC socket and I believe it's beyond salvageable now.

Do you have a picture? Of what’s wrong perhaps it is salvageable because the pcb is just copper traces and contact pads

Actually, I'm personally not sure if it's still good or not I managed to heat gun the IC socket and I still have the capacitor to remove but if ever I want to save myself the money and figure if I can just replace the IC and the capacitor

That looks fine to me, clean with isopropyl alcohol 90% or higher Then you should be good

oh nice, perfect, I was anxious that I might've fried the board off by heat gunning it or something thank you so much!

Nah, it's just copper underneath now you could have fried the IC, but not the board

Gotcha. I saved myself getting another kit and buying replacement IC's and capacitors instead, thanks for the save! i got concerned because the copper part was showing when I was trying to desolder the stuck pins, thankfully that didn't happen

and this can be scrapped to the traces so you can solder to the PCB by scraping the plastic off
