Sourcing Fairchild Regs

[Scott Parsons]

Hi All

I am trying to get about 10 (I actually need only 2) Fairchild KA5S1265 or
FS6S1265 SMPS regulators.

I have tried Farnell and RS. Farnell said they would try and source them
but the min order is $500

I have tried the 2 Australian Distributors for Farichild: Arrow and Soanar.

I have tried getting samples from Fairchild with no success.

I can get them via USBID but I need to buy 360 @ $1400US !!

Has anyone any ideas, otherwise I have to buy the complete board at $560
just for a <$10 component..

Thanks in advance

Scott

Arrow in the US show them at a single-item price but availability is "call

for quote", but they may be worth a shot anyway.

However it's Thanksgiving so don't expect an answer before Tuesday our time.

Ken, have you ever had any joy that way? I've only ever been referred
back to ArrowOz, who are a waste of oxygen.
