So how many manufacturers of op amps are left ?<br>
- Analog Devices + Linear Technology<br>
- JRC/NJR<br>
- Maxim<br>
- Motorola + Fairchild<br>
- Philips<br>
- SGS + Thomson<br>
- Texas Instruments + Burr-Brown + National semiconductor<br>
<br>
I count seven. A few more rounds of concentration and it'll be<br>
down to three, like hard disks. Good news for us, no doubt. :-/<br>
