@tubetime man, I tried these in the past. I boiled them for 2 hours and they were still hard as rocks... not recommended @tubetime I saw one of those in use last week to display the output from a monitoring camera inside a test chamber. @tubetime What does one do with scrap wafers that makes them worth US$3.33 and not just landfill? @EricCarroll look at them under a microscope, sometimes you'll find interesting prerelease silicon. or neat silicon artwork. you can also examine the test structures, and with the right equipment, measure transistor characteristics. @tubetime I wonder how many people used the variable front-end gain features on old TVs and radios. @tubetime is that the tv visible in The Matrix when Neo and Morpheus are in the construct? |
a neat old Motorola TV. notice it can receive fringe TV, presumably stuff like x files reruns
