I'd like to find a mail order source for the National NS16550A UART.
Suggestions? Anyone know about how much they cost?
(In case you don't know, the 16550 is a 16450 with FIFOs and DMA
capability.)

Anyone responding, please POST :-) I, too, am looking for a QUICK and RELIABLE source for NS16550AFN chips. (please don't tell me about JDR. I tried ordering from them, and they sent the wrong parts (different manufacturer)). -- bill@unixland.uucp The Think_Tank BBS & Public Access Unix ...!uunet!think!unixland!bill ..!{uunet,bloom-beacon,esegue}!world!unixland!bill 508-655-3848 (2400) 508-651-8723 (9600-HST) 508-651-8733 (9600-PEP-V32)

They have telephone numbers in most major cities, and are asking US$9.90 each for NS16550AFN UARTS. Catch? They have a $50.00 minimum order. Good news: They will ship COD.

JDR @ (800) 538-5005 Jameco @ (415) 592-8097 I beleive that JDR will probably give you a better price (<$20). -- Gerard. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gerard Hickey UUCP: uunet!sir-alan!admiral!viscar!gph

A few weeks ago someone mentioned they had pursuaded Mouser Electronics to stock the Unicorn Micro version of the 16550 chip for about $6. According to the Mouser people (when I tried to place an order this morning), they stopped carrying all Unicorn Micro chips last week. Easy come, easy go.... - Brian

Anyone know about how much they cost? I have been able to obtain a small quantity of NS16550AFN chips, at around $11.00 each. If anyone is interested, I would be happy to sell them at $15.00 postpaid and mailed from either the US or Canada. UPS for $2.00 extra. Any small profit made in selling these would go to help upgrade the (free) site here. --- Steve Pershing, System Administrator : The QUESTOR Project: FREE Usenet News/Internet Mail; Sci, Med, AIDS, more : :===========================================================================: : Internet: sp@questor.wimsey.bc.ca : POST: 1027 Davie Street, Box 486 : : Phones: Voice/FAX: +1 604 682 6659 : Vancouver, British Columbia : : Data/BBS: +1 604 681 0670 : Canada V6E 4L2 :
