I should add that when googling you should not be logged into google, I have found that when I am logged into google it hides results from me. I found this out in my 'searching the archive' thread; almost all of the archive was not showin up until I logged out amazed

Besides that... When searching for part numbers I would recommend skipping google all together, and go strait to alldatasheet or something. I have pretty much decided that if it isn't listed there is isn't worth searching for...

I find yahoo to be very good at searching part numbers. Usually, i'll get a datasheet link whenever i put a part into yahoo.

Alldatasheet is good, but if I can't find a datasheet there, there's still a good chance I might find it using google. Yahoo seems to work well for part numbers, but for some of the more exotic ones, it seems no better than google.

"Amateur" may be thought of as a pejorative description, but it's quite a useful word if you are trying to track down home brew (ie cheap) ways of doing things.

Has anyone tried Link2 as a place to search for part numbers? I haven't had a need to search for components lately so I haven't really tested it's efficiency and usefulness.

It simultaneously searches a dozen or two major electronic supply houses and comes up with a go/no-go list of pricing and availability.

Do you mean as a way to find them to buy, or for datasheets? If the latter then I would say it is useless, as all chips that are currently sold are easy to get datasheets for... It is the old/military/etc stuff that is hard to find.
