but if you apply Mark's suggestion, then a 74LS04 could be represented with the tags "74LS" and "74x04": a maximum of X + Y tags instead of X * Y distinct parts (where X is the number of families, and Y is the number of logic types). Then you can add your manufacturer tag, package tag, etc. The point is that it doesn't make sense to treat parts databases like an N-dimensional space. -- - Charles Lepple
