I don't need to re-connect the wires. I just need 1 or 2 pins in addition to 2 pins for power supply pin. So, if the die was aligned on the left-side, perhaps I could cut it in the middle and loose half of the pins, and still be able to use the other half.
Does micro-chip reveal the internal layout?. As a Last resort, I need to sacrifice one and find-out.
Its not that I want to save some money or like that. Just for the fun part, and for seeing the reaction of my friends screaming -"Which 8-pin PIC is that?"
