Hi
Yes, I need it to survive.
I managed to get another one off, but that one had the pads just visible on the sides, so I could get it with one soldering iron on each side.
On this one the pads are not reachable.
I tried heating up a feeler gauge with a torch and inserting under to see if that would melt the solder, but unfortunately not. Perhaps if I attach the feeler gauge to an powerful soldering iron and tin it first
The data sheet says the component will survice 260C reflow for 40 seconds three times.
