Hi,
Still not critical with washing means, its safe to wash the ICs?
There is no general answer.
Why washing at all? Electrical reasons? mechanical protection? environmental reasons? chemical reasons (coating )..
Homebrew or in a professional washing machine?
The "why" also determines how you want/need to
dry after washing (cold, warm, hot, pressure air, vaccuum..)
As already mentioned: it depends on the IC. But for sure also on the washing method.
Water, steam, chemicals, pH, temperature, pressure, duration, ultrasonic, mechanic, brushes..and so on
And I guess you don´t want to wash this IC on it´s own. Thus it depends on all other parts, too.
