Free samples of IC's
« on: February 06, 2008, 06:21:51 PM »

Thanks to catweazle for this one:

http://sample.microchip.com

You can order 3 free samples each of loads of different IC's including PIC's and memory.

check the following semiconductor manufactors....

www.ti.com                very very fast shipping, just a couple of days and you have your samples

www.st.com               very fast shipping

www.microchip.com     ok, it takes more than two weeks but it works                                       

www.analog.com         takes some time, too
 
Don't use commercial email adress like  yahoo, web, gmx - accounts, that will not work!
I can say it works really, but do not go over the top ordering samples everywhere.

oh this was a very expensive information, please transfer a lot of money to my pay pal account ;)
