pfactorial 7 Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 What happened to all the through hole ICs that Fairchild had? I'm talking about the ones that look like the MSP430 chips, like the 74xx series. Why are they all outdated?! Curse you SMT... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pfactorial 7 Posted January 1, 2012 Author Share Posted January 1, 2012 BTW does someone know of a place that still manufactures DIP packages of the 74xx series? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Why are they all outdated?! Curse you SMT... They got discontinued after March last year. I guess not enough big manufacturers wanted them anymore. NXP still makes them, though, and I think nobody's link shows what I'm talking about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
