SA605 or SA615 source
 

Anyone got a source for SA605 or SA615? I want to build the 1-chip
receiver that Steve Hageman describes in EDN Access of 25 September
1997, but am having problems finding the chips. Maybe I'm looking
past them.

Nominally these are Phillips parts (now NXE or whatever). They use the
'SA' 'NE' etc., for indicating temperature ranges -- I know I've had
trouble finding '602s with one prefix, and no problem with the other.

They can be ordered directly from Philips -- as of a couple of years
ago anyway. Also, www.findchips.com shows a few vendors that sell them.

The above link should prove helpful. Future Electronics has a pretty good
selection of Philips components. The only catch is that you have to buy a
rail of 25 at a time. At the price of $2.65 cach, that isn't too bad. When I
buy SA602s, I usually buy 100 at a time. I've got around 100 of the 605s,
but who knows where they are. I put them in a safe place, along with the two
evaluation boards. Unfortunately, it was too safe of a place!
Give Future Electronics a call.............they will be able to help you. If
you can find some friends to split the cost with, that always helps.

DigiKey (www.digikey.com) has both parts for about $5 each. No minimum
and fast shipping

I recall reading that the SA602/605's were discontinued and replaced by
the '612/'615. Because of demand some of these were relabeled and sold
as 602/605's to satisfy customers who didn't believe that the parts were
interchangeable. They are.
