But they seem to have put a whole lot of other bugs into it in the

Got a PM with a link to Digikey. They have the Mill-Max brand in

I am just wondering what Digikey did to their search engine. After
their "improvement" most of my searches end in a database
error. Sometimes the exact same search does work on the 2nd or 3rd
attempt. Just found a 0603 10uF ceramic that way, attempts 1 and 2
bombed, 3rd worked. Frustrating.


It's been like that for a few days now. I have been using the site
heavily during a new design. Must be costing them a lot of money.

Bugs aside, I think the search engine *is* improved. Still can't sort
on price though :(.

Mouser catalog has them.

0000virtualkey535-10-600-11

Data sheet
http://www.arieselec.com/products/14006.pdf

I didn't notice that Mouser stock level was NIL....
However, it gives a lead.


Aries website http://www.arieselec.com/ stock check for part 10-514-10
shows only 76 total in 2 places. Not cheap either....

Aries may be prepared to do a run if more are needed.


Thanks. Meantime another engineer wrote me and he found Mill-Max stock
at Digikey. $5 is expensive but right now that wouldn't have mattered.

I don't know what they would be called, but you can / could buy machined
sockets in bulk for stuffing in pcb boards. You could lay out a suitable
pattern on a PCB and solder them into the plated through holes in the PCB.
They made really low profile sockets!

Also look out with intermatallics! Tin plated leads and gold sockets don't
like each other (fretting corrosion), but people commonly use gold plated
machined sockets on tin plated IC's, believing they are creating a superior
connection, when in reality, the cheap tin plated sockets would be much more
reliable. Since machined sockets (which seem to only come gold plated) tend
to be used in designs that are expensive, and are usually meant to last
awhile, this is a major problem.

These will be used with wires soldered to them. We'll go for gold
because the laser pins are mostly also gold-plated.

Yes - has improved - like now being able to select 'in stock' later on in the search process.
I also really miss sort on price though, and wish they would merge all the various quantity options
into a single line - maybe with another column.

Well, that's the problem. Found them in many places but stock is always
nil :-(

At least I found a few of them on Ebay. Unfortunately the cheap stuff,
not gold-plated machined ones. If nothing works we'll hack some of the
8-pin sockets here in my lab so that five pins are left and glue the
parts together. Ugly, but functional. That won't work later in
production though.
