1. Introduction

You know how frustrating it is to find an one-of-a-kind IC that you just must have yet it is no longer made! What do you do?!?!?

Well, needless to say (if you were watching the size of this file as it was transferring :-) there are companies who have realized that there is demand for obsolete chips and are doing their best to make people like you happy.

If you represent an entity that would like to be included on this page, please send me your speciality, full contact info, and which section you would like to be under:

or [mailto].
