LM3886, LM4780 in India / Bangalore?

[diarav]

Hi,
I spent about 2 hrs this morning at SP Road and did not find a vendor for LM3886 , LM4780. Some vendors told me price of Rs.190/- for LM3886 but they did not have the component ! They dont seem reliable. Also the big shops dont seem to be having this at all.

I was wondering if some one could guide me on how they source their ICs . Is there some website where I can purchase online?

Or does anyone in Bangalore / elsewhere in India, have these chips and are ok to spare me a few for a price.

I am looking for 2 LM4780 and 2 LM3886.

Thanks
Din

Go to National's website... they have a section where you can find a distributor in your area.....

Thanks Nordic.

That did not strike me. I went thru the site, got hold of some numbers, reached some contacts. Hopeful of something positive.

LM3886 -- at 45RS/$1 USD 190 is a very good price -- if that is the going rate -- the chip is about $6 at Digikey.

Hi jackinnj,

Yes, Rs.190 seems a good price, again I am not sure of the reliability. Or even if the part is good, it's possible he is doing a sale of a free sample - not sure !
LM3886 on an Indian electronics parts website shows the price in the range of Rs. 400 to Rs. 500.

It costs Rs 180/- and 220/- for metal/ plastic package, not sure abt which is costlier...here in Calicut only limited quantity....not sure it is still available.....
