The term "clay" is used often to describe chips.
Correct me if I am wrong in any of my assumptions. I understand that a clay chip would be a compression molded chip as opposed to an injection molded chip.
Besides the very ambiguous quality of "feeling like clay", clay chips can have lathe marks and would lack injection marks. But these characteristics are neither absolute proof nor always present on clay chips. Does anyone have any other quailities of clay chips that can be used in the verification process?
If you possess a chip is there an irrefutable way to determine if it is "clay". Preferably a way that does not destroy the chip, But if necessary that an option.
Thanks for any input
