We do not use AR on chips usually.
Only the older ceramic chips are processed in AR.

YGG, asked are they ceramic pinned or fiber pinned?

Look like fiber but i honestly have no clue

 

[adam mizer]

Yes fiber and big heatsink.
You see a heatsink over fiber board with pins attached to fiber.
If you search the forum you will find lots of information.
Remove a heatsink to see whats underneath it, can't remember if there is a gold trace under them.

Cool thanks dude this is a crazy interesting chemistry

I don't like these.
Nice little gold legs.
Some mlcc's and gold tracings.
I scratched the traces under the mask and they are all copper.
The heatsink is attached using some rubber type material epoxied to board.
Remove them.
I would want to remove scratch off the mlcc's with a tool. Save them until you build up some poundage.
Maybe the rubber stuff would be okay in AP solution and filtered out afterwards.
