CS8412-CP with D/C 1997 OR 2000

drlazybones · 31st December 2004, 09:16 AM

Hi all,

I have found a supplier for these chips, in both date codes, but I'll need to order a number of them in order to spread the shipping costs over a group of people. Two things to consider:

1) Is there a significant difference between the 1997 and the 2000 datecode chips? If there isn't, it is probably worth it to go for the 1997 chips, because I can get them cheaper...

2) Are there enough people out there who want this part for me to swing maybe 10-15 of these chips? I need to get an idea of demand before I go out on a limb and order a couple of hundred dollars of ICs...

The 1997 chips I can probably do for $20, but the 2000 will be $25...

Let me know.

Tom

There are cheaper sources that around without such a high order limit. I got 0347 or somehting datecodes from reichelt.de

Hi,

I would be interested in some, but I also feel that the price is a bit high...can you make an effort to keep the price down a bit...?

cheers,
thijs

The last I checked, reichelt has a 100 euro order minimum, and charges 75 euro to ship less than 10kg to the USA. That's a pretty steep price to pay for one chip...

You cold also check with the guy who sells TDA1541S2:S he got Cs8412 on the cheap aswell.

I dont remember his name now bot do a search for it here on the forum and you will find it.

As an afterthought, I suppose my original motivation was simply to find a source for this chip, and it has proven extremely difficult. If you know of a good source, please share!

Reichelt doesn't stock this chip anymore, as far as I can tell, and the only site I found that does stock it is charging something like 30 euro. There is a supplier from China charging $50 right now.

It seems to me, the only way to get this piece at an economical price is to do a bulk purchase and spread the shipping costs over a number of buyers!
