HI,
I am looking for a store in Los Angeles area that I can go and shop for
IC circuits and components. Where should I look for stores like this
and if anyone know any stores of this kind?
Check out the local Fry's electronics. Not that they have that
great a selection, tho. It depends on what you want.
I'll 2nd the request. Any good places near L.A.? Fry's only carries
some NTE parts. Signal Electronics in Torrance carries even smaller
amounts of NTE, but also has a few dozen JameCo.com and an equal amount
of Philmore parts; i.e., nothing to brag about. Torrance electronics
seems a little better in some areas, perhaps harder to find NTE &
JameCo parts, but has less over all unless they're hiding them behind
the counter; e.g., just found a Sample & Hold chip at Torr. Electronics
that Fry's and Signal only have in their dreams.
Isn't there anything in the entire L.A. or Orange county? Something
like a nearby Digikey would be outrageous!

Electonic City in Burbank tends toward broadcast equipment but has a
fair number of semiconductors 1N, 2N,'LS and such, cable, connectors.
Also try ITC and Ametron. Panther parts (No Hollywood) has lots of
capacitors. TAW in Burbank has 1% resistors. Digi-Key is as near as
your phone.
Irritating isn't it? 2nd largest metro area in the country and you KNOW
what you want is here SOMEWHERE -- but WHERE???
my last quality set cost Ł50, you either need a pay rise or some instruction
The only electronic components I've encountered that are really
An expensive way to make napalm.
The strongest solvent I ever came across here was MEK (methyl ethyl
'mumble mumble' years ago. Have to give his site a look!
Not only does it have the chance of getting onto circuitry, it also
Isopropyl will strip that stuff off? Who'da thunk it?

That's good to know about the 1% resistors. I guess there's always
micro pots. Does Panther also have precision caps? Decades ago there
used to be a ITC in Torrance. Loved the place. Back then it was a sort
of surplus of electrical parts and equipment. I remember them having
boxes of old ferrite rods taken from radios. I see they're out in L.A.,
very cool.
BTW, Radio shack seems to have a nice little parts lists.

All Electronics in Van Nuys and C&H Surplus in Pasadena have common
hobbyist parts and a real good selection of consumer and industrial
surplus (aka "junk").
Marvac Electronics stores are in the region, they mostly do
repair-oriented stuff but they are more than just ECG/NTE.
Nothing like the selection available overnight from
Digi-Key/Mouser/etc. though.
Anyone? Bueller?
Ahhh, is it a pin for pin replacement?
