JEFFREY’s NOISE (j-noise)

Yesterday came my free sample of FreeScale accelerometer IC.See the shot.

But it is not possible to solderusing ordinary iron.I had ordered two.One is in the box and the other I have taken to upstairs to solderusing my new microsoldering iron.
Today came the sample of MicroChip. I was shocked to see the IC’s are of DIP.So they can be inserted in
the breabboard.see the shot.

I have failed in burning PIC16f84 .Now I am in a trial to burn the PIC16f628a.If successful I will host a page in my website.
The sample of microchip contained an DSPIC30F4013.I am also in search of a programmer in GNU/Linux.If anyone has a circuit please let me know.
