MC1494/1594L. A few chips wanted.
Tony Williams
and the customer wants just a few more to do
some repairs on his equipment. I can do a new
design using modern multipliers, but this will
mean a new pcb layout and test. I'm starting to
do that this week, but just on the offchance
does anyone in this newsgroup (in UK if possible)
have any old stock they might sell me?
Thanks,

I will look around, but don't hold your breath!
Meanwhile, PartMiner says they can get up to 97
pieces - you could get a quote on four or five.

Strixner and Holzinger seems to have them in small quantities, however rather expensive ~10 Euro/piece, but this seems to be acceptable in your case.

Thanks to both. I was offered up to £40 each for
small quantities, with nebulous delivery times.
So a redesign was started. Then someone rang back
and offered 12 pieces at about £9 each, ex stock.
Placed the order yesterday.

Good for you, Tony! Perhaps sometimes good things do
come to those who wait!
BTW, what exactly does the phrase "ex stock" mean, and
how'd it come about? It does have a nice ring to it.

The man rang me on Sunday morning no less, casually
stating that he had found some stock in the UK and
expected delivery to him would be Weds. This was
in contrast to the other replies which all quoted a
delivery of "5-7 days"..... which really means that
they have found some, somewhere in the world, and
are quoting an optimistic airfreight delivery time.
The result was so unexpected that I actually phoned
back to check that it was MC1494 he had found, not
the more prevalent MC1495.
I'm still half expecting something to go wrong.

Great story (so far), but were you going to exlain
ex-stock? Is it the same as when we say in-stock,
meaning they really have it, rather than that they
can get their hands on it? What's the "ex" about?

It just means that the parts are available from stock (and thus they
are "in stock" from the stockist's pov). It's not like an "ex-parrot".
It's used similarly as a trade term. Eg. ex-factory (or ex-dock) means
that the price includes transportation to that point of origin, and
the buyer is responsible for costs incurred from there.

"ex" = "from", used as "Delivery will be ex-stock".
They actually have it on the shelf.

Great, sounds like a good source. Maybe now you
can tell us who you got them from?

See http://www.modecomponents.co.uk
A chap by the name of Chris Tredwell who runs a small
one man company supplying components to amateur radio
enthusiasts. An email recommendation as a result of
this thread. He didn't have them in stock, but did the
donkey work to find some in the UK. Order placed Monday,
arrived Friday, exactly as promised.
