Summary

[edit]
Description
English: I tried treating this like a normal Intel CPU (Razor blade to remove layers), but I got stuck at a particular copper layer and from past experience I knew that this would likely destroy the chip if I attempted to continue. So I put it aside for when I would be able to etch it.

I bought an ultrasonic cleaner and ferric chloride. Then I had this chip and some others sit in it for a few hours at around 45-50*C. It helped to get rid of some of it, but there was still a few layers left that were not budging. So I waited for my glass etching paste to arrive. The glass etching paste performed much better and I only needed to have it in there for an hour and a half or so.

If anyone plans on repeating this please remember these chemicals are quite bad for your health. I took proper safety precautions when dealing with them, make sure you educate yourself. Since these are strong acids you also need to neutralize the waste chemicals before disposal using baking soda. The chemicals in the glass etching paste can eat away at your bones overtime and reduce the calcium concentration of your blood causing hypocalcemia. It can also diffuse through your skin and certain gloves, so make sure you do your research.

I had some serious issues with stitching this chip since it is so large and I have tried my best to correct any warping. I also switched my panning guide grid to 6x4 which means that unlike 4x4 I will be moving a larger amount in the X axis each time I zigged across to a new vertical column. This helped to reduce the overall number of images at the cost of having less overlap and made stitching easier.
