Agreed. I’ve never seen an IC with two indentations.
PLCCs like that do often have two indentations, on opposite corners due to the molding process. Doesn’t make this any less slop though.
Are the indentations just for orientation during soldering?
Yeah. 1 makes sense, 2 can be confusing and ruin your placements.
