[volt-nuts] Building a high resolution DAC

Hello,

its not only the plastic (epoxy) package.
Its also the epoxy PCB which creates package stress to the die.
And I do not believe that any "slots" make it significantly better.
Thats why I use the AD586LQ; and soldering only one pin to the PCB.
(the others with thin VERO-wire).

With best regards

Andreas
