Frequently Asked Questions
What package type does the Weston 272612 use?
It uses a 24-lead side-brazed ceramic dual in-line package (CDIP-24) with gold leads, a 0.1-inch lead pitch, and a 0.6-inch row spacing.
Are technical manuals or pinout documentation included?
Not included.
What condition is this pulled IC in, and how is it evaluated?
This component was pulled from decommissioned equipment. Visual inspection confirms intact ceramic packaging and clean gold leads, but electrical function testing has not been performed.
Before plastic packaging took over the world, critical circuits were sealed in white ceramic and real gold so they would outlive the machine around them. If you are keeping a vintage Weston chassis running on your bench, here is the original silicon to make it happen.
