Scott,

> That is a strange way of doing business.  It's nice to see places like
OnSemi and Rochester taking over production of discontinued parts where
possible.  In fact, I was really surprised to see OnSemi still putting out
the SA572 in DIP format.

its not strange, its econmics..

> Speaking of which, is it OnSemi who has the rights to the old CEM stuff,
or is that someone else?

yes, I contacted them a few years back (8 or so) about doing a run of
3340s..
They said they woud, BUT, there was an MOQ of 10,000 and a price per unit of
$25 (yes quarter of a million dollars in total, and thats probabl ex VAT!).
They basically do this to price themselves out of it and say "no we dont
want to do it" without actually saying 'no'.
