I smashed an old 7700 series chip and retrieved a pin.
Carefully soldering the IC pin to the BS-2 revived it
nicely. If you have some 4% silver solder available,
use it for the added strength.
Clamp the stamp in a vice for support, and do your
soldering as quickly as possible.

I removed the old pin first.
Note that the pins are attached to both sides of the
circuit board. Unsolder one side first; allow the stamp
to cool then do the other side. When you solder the
new/old IC pin on, make sure that both sides are attached.
Solder one side, cool it, and then the other.
For desoldering, I used an Edsyn "solder sucker", but I
don't see why you couldn't use light guage braid if you
work quickly.
I relegated the fixed stamp to a permananent use where I
wouldn't be moving it in and out of a socket all the time.
I tried this as a last resort, and was willing to accept failure!
I didn't have a backup Stamp at the time.

Plug the stamp into the wire-wrap socket, then use the
wire-wrap socket piggy-back style into whatever suits your
needs.... (SBB) solderless bread board, existing socket, etc.
When you are ready for a more permanent solution, unplug the
stamp from the wire-wrap socket and plug it in directly.

Depending on how is it broken, you could use a chip carrier or chip
socket. stick a resistor lead in the matching socket and then stick
the Stamp in. then solder the lead to the stamp.
that way, all the ruture abuse will be on the chips socket.

Dave,
I think we're on the same wavelength here. I had mentioned
the use of a wire-wrap socket primarily for the length (cut
as desired) and durability of the 'pins' relative to just a
standard IC socket. Forget for the moment that you can
wire-wrap to the socket and just use it as a durable conduit
for the Stamp.

Input Force I think is what it stands for!
It has the little lever on the side that will clamp it down. Used in
programmers mostly (at least as far as I've seen it!

For future protection why not just use a wire-wrap socket?

These would be great after he fixes the pin. a little bulky for a
finshed product, but a great device for testing when you move the
chip in and out of the device.
The reason they are popular with other micros is that many cannot be
easily programed unless you remove the chip, put it on a programmer
(seperate device) burn the program, then return it to your project.
since the Programmer only has the chip for a few minutes, the ZIF
reduces the potential for damaging pins.
more than you wanted to know ?

several so i just solder those in place when i make a project. thanks. but
i want to know if parallax will repair my stamp.
