   One problem
with taking advantage of a PACE chip (free or

 that the I/O pads aren't compatible with TTL, or with much of

 transceiver chips designed to work with it, but of course they are
 even
 more like unobtanium these days than the PACE itself.  I suspect that
 the easiest thing to interface to it nowdays would be CD4000B series
 CMOS logic, which is extremely slow, but then so is the PACE. 
    No, I'm not talking about the PACE chip, but the keyfob with the
 386 die encased in plastic :o)
    I never got to encase in resin a chip and make it crystal clear.
 I tried many many times with no success :( 
 
   Did you have problems with air bubbles, or something else?  The
way to solve air bubble problems is to place it under vacuum before
it cures.
