It comes in very small packages too (you just ignore the extra pins). -- - Mark -> --

Our distributor always charge us more than the budgetary prices on Ti web site. I wonder if this is local case or in the aim to show how cost effective are their products TI anounce these prices without enough margin for their disti chain.
