Allen Bradley

[Jim Patchell]

    I would try to find their web site and locate authorized distributors
(Probably somebody like Marshal or Arrow or Avnet carries them).  The
problem I have found even with places like digikey and mouser is that they
will substitute another manufacturer.  If you want exactly a specific part,
the big boys seem to be the only place to go.

    To tell the truth, I didn't even know that Allen Bradly made trim
pots.  In 25 years, I have never seen one.  Now, the one thing I was
looking for from Allen Bradly were their Cermet Resistors.  The had a line
of 1% resistors that were availiable up to 100 Meg in value (well, I know
you could get 20Meg).  I can't remember what the Tempco's were, but I
remember they were fairly low for a resistor that size.  It appears that
Allen Bradly has ceased making these....which I suppose is not too
surprising.
