I made a part request today of 4 chips. I answered all questions as truthfully as possible. I did not claim to be a business, and even stated I was going to use the chips for hobby use\development.I will follow up as results come in.
Chips ordered,
Atmega 2560 ...... curious if I can solder this one.
Atmega 1284 SMT .... I want to try 20Mhz and I have one PCB left over to solder this to.
ATtiny 84 ..... I have never used this one before.
ATmega128RFA1, IC AVR MCU 2.4GHZ XCEIVER 64QFN .........WIFy chip, I hope I can make this work, it would be awesome!
Anyone can solder an ATMega2560 if you go ahead and buy one of the Schmartboard adapters. Too bad they cost $10 each. I posted about it here and most everyone has a better idea than spend $10 but it does work, it worked for me just fine:
