RSD IC pads

Post by Drock »

I took my RSD 1200.1 apart and lost one of the little clear pads that go between the IC and heat sink. ( not sure what the proper name for this is)Does any one have these or an old dead amp for parts?

To bad. Thanks though. Maybe someone else has some.
What exactly is the purpose of the sil-pads? Is it an insulator or a conductor? It's the first time I took a good amp apart and had to put it back together. I thought I had everything accounted for but I guess not. Now I'm not wanting to power it up to try it out.

they often get stuck to the back of a transistor or two check them out to make sure they are not sticking to them.

I'm assuming it's for a transistor?

Shoot me a good close up pic so I can determine the size of sil-pad you need. I can either send you a couple if I have the correct size, or at least point you in the right direction to purchase some.
