|
|
When you get a engineering sample that has markings on it in pen, pencil, etc. do you leave the engineer markings or do you remove them?
I have always kept them for historical purposes and in some cases to help decipher information about the chip. I am curious how others deal with markings. |

It depends if the marking come off when I clean them. Sometimes I prefer to remove them. Randomly . _________________ My microprocessor collection: The Gecko's CPU Library |

Depends whether I find the information useful or not, and how unique the chip might be. Normally I clean them but there have been times (and will be more!) when leaving the hand written/drawn marks seemed prudent (ie a good idea). _________________ My graphics card database can be found at http://www.gpuzoo.com.
