Thanks for the help guys

I'll grab a wrist band today, and see if I can find a finer tip for my iron
It's just plug and play, and the tip is pretty clumsy
I have flux and a solder sucker, but I never liked the tool much

The chip is surface mount, so it'll be a bit fun 'till I get the first few contacts soldered, but at least it'll be easy to remove the old one

I'll see if I can find a heat sink and a chip holder too

I can only hope the new chip solves the problem as the unit is over $100 to replace, but the chip is only $4
