Well done tom! I had bought these before but never thought of making my own.

I've managed to build some SMD-DIP adaptor boards for useful but not- 
available-in-DIP ICs. Full details are here:

The chips in question are the Cirrus 192KHz 24-bit stereo DAC, a  
bargain at less than a couple of pounds, but a pain in the  
unbelievably tiny TSSOP10 package. The other is the new THAT2162 Dual  
Blackmer VCA, which isn't quite so bad in a QSOP16 package.

Now I can play with these on my breadboard, hooray!
