hello guys,

I usually find the parts I am looking for on digikey web site. I have
not order from there for a long time. But have they decrease
selectivity of products. I was looking for low pass filter chip.ie
MAX7480EPA, but it is non stock and minimum of 50.. and that is the
only with 2k fc. also I was looking for dtmf dialer, and they are now
obsolete. Is it just my luck or are they not keeping as many parts as
before ?

Maxim is pretty famous for rolling out ICs, running them for a few
yeras, and then limiting their availability. But today is your lucky
day on that one. The MAX7480EPA+ (the + stands for lead-free and RoHS
qualified) is available and in stock from both DigiKey and Maxim
directly. Try it.

If you're having problems with availability on a part, always check
with the manufacturer's website for further information.

Obsolete means obsolete. The distributors don't have anything to do
with this. But without a part number, a cross-reference isn't
possible. Most DTMF dialers are obsolete.

Good luck
Chris

Newark has them in stock, no minimum quantity, 1-24 @$5.67.

I'm surprised that the search engine at http://www.findchips.com is
not better known. It doesn't support a parametric search but once you
know the part number you're looking for, it can be quite handy.

Hey, that's REALLY handy.
Thanks for the link.
It's earned a place on my browser toolbar.

Obsolete means obsolete. The distributors don't have anything to do

possible. Most DTMF dialers are obsolete.
These days, it's not worth it, when practically anyone can whip up
a DTMF tone genny with just about any uP or FPGA/CPLD chip and a few
discretes. (of course, you'd need the development kit, but I guess
they can be found for $20.00 ~ $50.00 .)

Cheers!
