I PERFORMED IC SURGERY on an analog amplifier, custom dip-16. Removed
the gold cover. Pretty huge 1980s stuff, gold-on-ceramic hybrid.
But still. This was a custom IC, a patchclamp front end with a peltier-
cooled discrete amp, with a tiny peltier block, thermistor, and a
three-jfets diff amp. And a large piece of a dessicant pellet.
The thermistor had gone crazy from old age, shutting down
their -30C cooling.

I've never had leadbond chips open before. I mean, besides looking
inside those ancient Western Digital 6805-type microcontrollers with
the eprom window.
 
Mantis inspection microscopes: still NOT cheap on eBay.

What state was the dessicant?
I expected it to be the cause going to gel , like the breakdown of
con-formal coating causing chip failure.
I vaguely remember repairing an STK???? hybrid IC,fairly easy to break
open, that had been dropped and getting away with "bonding" the failed
usonic weld point , with silver loaded paint.

Just buy a multimeter from a hardware store.
