First, an introduction....
I have been a hobbyist in electronics for quite a while. A while
meaning back when you could get lots of components from the local
Radio Shack.
Rather recently (about a decade or so), with family taking priority,
I've gotten away from the hobby. Only recently, I've been introduced
to the hobby again getting into things like PIC chips and other
microprocessors. I stocked up on a selection of parts from various
catalog order places. Then my Dad gave me a bunch of boxes of circuit
boards with many parts on board. He asked me if I might be able to put
them to use. I said yes. In the following weeks, he gives me more.
Here, I learned he was dismantling old equipment where he works, that
couldn't be refurbished, and stockpiling the boards which would have
been thrown away anyway.
This leaves me with a lot of parts. So far, I've pulled many of the
ICs and some of the easy to remove discrete components (transistors,
electrolytics, power resisters, SCRs, etc.). I have quite a variety of
parts now from old CPUs (6502, Z80, etc.), TTL chips (74XX), analog
ICs (A/D, Op-Amp, etc.).
What I plan to do sometime is inventory everything and post a list. I
may find myself with a steady stream of parts in the future. I can't
give them away (we all know we need to fund our hobbies somehow). But
I'm willing to sell some of this stuff. If there is an interest, or
request for parts, let me know. I'll see what I got. I can't promise I
have everything, but I know what it's like to try and find a source
for out of production components.
Here's a small sample of some of the rather unique ICs I have (along
with datasheet links). Excuse me a moment while I slide across the
synthetic carpet while in my wool sweater and go grab a few of these
parts.
LM629-N Motor Control
(http://www.national.com/ds/LM/LM628.pdf)
HM6264P-15 8Kx8 Static RAM
(http://www.datasheet4u.com/download.php?id=177085)
AD7582KN - CMOS 12-Bit Successive Approximation ADC
(http://dkc3.digikey.com/Media/PDF/Data Sheets/Analog Devices PDFs/
AD7582.pdf)
MC14411 Bit Rate Generator
9http://www.datasheetarchive.com/pdf/2255895.pdf)
MC6850P Async CIA
http://www.datasheetarchive.com/pdf/2272999.pdf
This is a very small list. There are many more interesting pats on
other boards that I haven't salvaged yet. I can't make any promises,
but if there are special parts you're looking for, send me a message.
I'll make a note of it and let you know what I find.
Thanks, and I might catch you all again on some of these other
sci.electronics newsgroups as I get more involved in the hobby again.
Thanks,
Jeff
