Dont chips get destroyed when powerful light (like the one in the scanner) hits them? Or is the point of scanning chips just to get their specs on file and not to preserve them?
- yannyu 12y agoThere are some kinds of chips that can be reset by certain kinds of light (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPROM http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPROM). Apart from that, packaged ICs aren't generally damaged by light that isn't at a laser-like intensity.
