Has any one experienced partial short circuits apearing between adjacent pins on ADSP21061,2 devices. These shorts are around a few tens of ohms. On removing the faulty device from the pcb the fault disapears-probably due to heating the device |

While this is very gratifying, and confirms all those things my parents said about their TV's with faults working perfectly when I watched them, it is a bit weird. Obviously there is some strange capacitance thing going on. Adrian. -- Dr A.P.

You might try pushing gently on the pins of the DSP with a fine tipped probe |
