I want to use the Microchip MCP73123 LiFeO4 battery chargers chip.
However it only comes in a DFN 10-pad package. Does anyone know how to
prototype with such a package?
Thanks
rich

In any case, one of his recent postings is prototype dead bug style a
similarly packaged device:

That way a DIP IC is essentially created that can be plugged into DIP sockets for use, just like a DIP IC.
