You should try a Sony 1602 or 1601 IC from one of their broadcast

working on these things in every broadcast engineering department
complaints about these devices.. Give me a 100 pin BGA device any
day..

If you know the IC's buggered (or even of low commercial value), cut
every pin and remove them individually. Then clean the holes up. It
always wins on time and cost.

Isn't that a PGA? Hard to cut the pins.
