Soldering Tiny Wires To Avoid Buying A Thousand Fake Chips - ESP32 WiPhone

Ғылым және технология

There is currently a shortage of ICs in much of the electronics industry and that means we need to be extra cautious about testing to verify the parts we are buying are actually what we paid for.
This video shows how to use an IC socket and dev board to quickly test chips from multiple alternate vendors. We start with a regular dev board that designed around the same chip we want to test, remove the chip and solder 0.1mm wires between the pads on the dev board and a test socket. Now we have an easy way to swap the chip without additional soldering.
The WiPhone project is an open source mobile phone capable of making free calls through the internet. The phone is intended to be hackable, modular, cheap, and open while remaining usable by everyday people. It makes calls over WiFi only (no cellular radio).

    Damn this chip shortage! Probably the most unexpected effect of the pandemic.

    It's painful for me to watch you do this. Great job! I don't have the eyesight or the patience to do that. I appreciate the work though. I spent plenty of time in driver h@@l with fake FTDI chips.

    There's no SIM on this phone, it's currently WiFi only. There is an enhancement request for a cellular capable daughter board. There's also the option to create your own cellular add-on for it.
