I recently designed a product using the AMD 99C88 8Kx8 CMOS static ram because the AMD rep in my area is also a business associate. I was promised samples in May - then June - then July - then maybe 1986 because-the-bottom-has-fallen-out-of-the- 8Kx8-market and AMD was no longer motivated. I was particularly ticked off because I had PC boards designed and built for some prototypes - and the AMD 99C88 pinout is different from everyone else's 8Kx8. Needless to say, I chose another vendor for the part. Also, my sources tell me that the 27512 is a dangerous part to design around because many other vendors are bypassing it and going directly from the 27256 to the 271014. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ | Larry Lippman @ Recognition Research Corp., Clarence, New York | | UUCP {decvax,dual,rocksanne,rocksvax,watmath}!sunybcs!kitty!larry | | {rice,shell}!baylor!/ | | VOICE 716/741-9185 syr!buf!/ | | TELEX {via WUI} 69-71461 ansbak: ELGECOMCLR | | | | "Have you hugged your cat today?" | +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
