IC Datasheet website - digchip.com

[Pinball Fixers]

Quite often you'll find yourself looking up a specific IC to work out exactly what it does, and how/why it's causing problems on your circuit board.

Usually, with a Google search you'll find the info you need pretty quickly and you're up and running again...

But, sometimes Google can't find what you're searching for... and in the case of IC Datasheets, this happens more often than not!

Today I stumbled across a site I've never seen before that had the obscure IC's datasheet I've been looking for for a while now... www.digchip.com

You can search using the chip number to find a datasheet, or cross reference search for a direct replacement IC - this can be very handy 


The cross reference search confirmed what I had worked out already about the obscure IC and the one I was 99% sure was a direct replacement, and now I have the datasheet as well!

Thanks heaps for that handy info, Owen

Looks good, it is always handy to find reference sites like that.

I've always used http://www.alldatasheet.com/ hasn't been a chip or tranny i couldn't find so far....

Hope it also assists you guys.

Both sites bookmarked 

Thanks guys

I used to have another site on my comp that you could type any transistor/ IC into and it would come up with replacements, direct to most in direct. Buggered if i can find it again after a comp crash!!!
It was this site that gave me a readily available replacement for the RAM chips in Zaccaria games
