Thanks for the tip. Here are some more companies that offer chip searching facilities to OEM's: http://www.chipdir.info/bro/market.htm It is usually quite unclear if they just offer their own stock or also that of others and how many others participate and how often the data are being updated. And how long these services will survive. Partminer also offers search functions for searching in distributor's stocks: http://www.freetradezone.com/ Greetings, Jaap -- Chip Directory -- http://www.chipdir.biz/ -- http://www.chipdir.info/ -- http://www.chipdir.net/ -- http://www.chipdir.nl/ -- http://www.chipdir.org/ -- And about 30 other mirror sites world-wide. -- -- To subscribe to a free 'chip issues, questions and answers' -- mailing list, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with -- in the body 'subscribe chipdir-L'.
