That's what Bob just said, except that he used "decapsulate"
instead of "de-blob".


The WRONG part was where he called it "die attach material".

Not having seen the device before Phil carved the goop off, and never
in 30 years having seen a transistor buried in RTV in the way mr
Allison described, I called it the most likely name.

Also, "de-capsulate" is a hyphenated word.

The US Department of Defense says "Go **** yourself with your silly
little hyphen, and get a life": See MIL-STD-1580B

Since you are so lifeless and bored, you might find it interesting.
