The book molds for chips tend to run about $100K each. We've looked into recreating molds for obsolete packages (anyone remember the BQFP?), and it just isn't economical for less than 1M parts. That depends on how many parts you intend to make with the tooling, if you set out to make a tool that lasts for only 10,000 shots, its a lot cheaper than one for 1,000,000. I have just had an intricate mould made for a 1000 pieces, and its cost less than 3000 USD. Steve |
