So, there's sensible use of time, then there's this. Test socket for bm1385 chips. Not quite sure if anyone else has done this yet, they're only 0.4mm pin pitch... still not sure if it will work. The 'connector' is most of an hdmi mini plug. The tricky bits are going to be local decoupling, xtal and and the power connection, I think. That and the 1.8v IO voltage, but I think I have a trivial solution to that (at least for testing).



Anyone else been down this rather painful route before?

Cheers,

Allan.
