Desoldered Spartan-6 FPGA - Free (gone)

Jan Cumps

I have desolderd a Spartan-6, to check if I could do it. If you can use it, let me know.
I'll send it from Belgium to any country that has no import/export restrictions, in a normal envelope with plain post.
Free shipping too, if you will use it and post a blog on e14. Else you pay the stamp.

It may or may not work. The unsoldering went smooth, but I didn't test the FPGA afterwards.
No rebates Slight smile

    Nice.  I always thought of BGA being a  barrier to entry when it comes to home projects.  I generally shy away from BGA and tend to look for QFP alternatives.  However as time goes by this becomes harder and harder to do for certain types of components like FPGAs.  It may be that your Weller station will open things up to BGA.
