  "readme": "# DIP-8 (W7.62mm)\n\nThe DIP-8 is the quintessential through-hole IC package with 8 pins in two rows spaced 7.62mm (300 mil) apart at 2.54mm (100 mil) pitch. A beloved package spanning decades of electronics history, it houses the 555 timer, NE5532 op-amp, ATtiny85 microcontroller, EEPROM chips, and countless other ICs. Breadboard-compatible and easy to socket, making it the preferred package for prototyping, education, and designs requiring field-replaceable ICs.",
