Retro Chip Tester

Source: https://youtu.be/D8gNRMAa2g8

Noel from Noels Retro Lab did it again. He tested a tester. A chip tester. So why does this concern you? I don’t know. 🤷‍♂️ But in case you enjoy playing with 5V logic chips, breadboards and stuff as much as we do, than I am quite sure, it happened more than just once, that the magic smoke found the way out of a chip, way before the delivery guy pressed it into your mailbox.

Instead of wasting hours and hours while trying to debug your system, you could easily just use a chip tester.

This is the third testing device that Noel tests. So let’s test, whether his test of the tester has something to … testify. 👏
