Empty Bag from Digi-Key

Digi-Key mis-shipped me a part. This bag was supposed to contain a small Kemet capacitor.

I’m building an AMB γ1 Modular Miniature DAC and as part of this I had to order a number of components from Digi-Key. Unfortunately, one part was missed. As can be seen above the bag was sent, but there was no part in it. At least it was only a $0.21, 0.1μF ceramic cap.

Even if I had received this cap I wouldn’t be done. It seems that I forgot to order some connectors for mating the two boards and screwed up a tiny SOT23 AND gate, so there’s now a couple other parts which I have to (re)order as well. Missing cap (C3U) and AND gate (U2U) can be seen here and the missing pin receptacles here.

On the upside, I had no problems soldering any of the SMT parts. I just put that aforementioned one in the wrong place and didn’t have any facilities for safely desoldering it. At least it only cost $0.40 or so.
