bankstick replacements

Hello.

I’m going to create banksticks module for my seq3 (finally!). But I can’t find Microchip’s 24LC512 chips in DIP8 enclosure. But I managed to find these two ICs:

24LC1025 (Microchip’s 8x128kb chip, http://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/Devices.aspx?dDocName=en024636 )

AT24C512B (Atmel’s 8x64kb, with 3 address pins, http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/product_card.asp?part_id=3782)

Could any of them fit in place of 24LC512?

cheers

you could try it here… http://www.rs-components.com/index.html

…and you might also try it here:

This is the microchip product page of the 24LC512 serial eeprom. You can also order samples here!

@ sexy beast  …yeah but with a processing fee of 7.50$ and a limit to 3 devices you could better go and buy them… :wink:

It seems Microchip doesn’t distribute samples to Poland :-/ and I’d also rather like to buy some replacement in my country than buy 24LC512 abroad and pay for international shipping. BTW, I think I found a place to buy 24LC512s, but knowing alternatives would be good.

And Atmels have a big advantage - they are almost twice cheaper.

So, If anybody knew if any of these two will fit, please let me (or anybody who would be interested) know.

cheers

@nuke

oops, sorry, I didn’t know that. Things have changed since I last ordered samples then; I did also order some PIC samples then and I did not have to pay anything.

perhaps too many people have found out about it?  :wink:
