RE: [oc] EEPROM Programmers using FPGAs? now its EPROM vsFLASHtime



Welll, I work for a big US based automotive company, so scrounging things from suppliers usually isn;t a problem.  When we did have to buy flash chips, we have to buy a tray of them...  sorry!

Martin,

specifically the Am29PL160C-70 units, want at least 4 probably more.

Thanks
