I have 25 linear feet of old databooks. I've kept them partly out of
sentimentality and partly because I have to fix stuff of that era now
and then.
The data sheet archives I've seen on the web are woefully incomplete.
Does anyone know of anyone/anything that collects these?
I don't collect them, I use them :-)
I find a paper databook/datasheet to be a lot easier to refer to than a
document on the web. Sure the web archives are useful when I can't get
the data any other way (nad many times they have provided data on chips
not in the _large_ collection of databooks here), but I am still keeping
said databooks.
AS is well know, I do a lot of reapirs on older computer hardware, and
it's a lot easier when you know what the chips are and what signals to
expect on the pins :-)
