- Ccecil 6mo agoI am not the poster...but I can say for things like the A4982 stepper drivers it would take me about 1-2min/chip to do it by hand with hot air with a preheater. [1] In one particular case where we had a BOM mixup on a batch of 500 boards @5 chips per board this would have saved me a ton of time. I did 2500 chip swaps by hand... If you need any help with the project let me know. This is something I would love to help develop hardware for.

- girvo 6mo agoRarely! But it takes me a few minutes per component, sometimes more because I'm quite bad at electronics and always afraid of damaging things haha
