Here's some links to some IC manufacturers who offers free samples
of their ICs
Maximvideo, interface, amplifier, AD/DA, power, microcontroller...etc reaching
you at light speed, praise them
National Semiconductor selected ICs reach you fast
Texas Instrument good ICs reaching you at quite an acceptable time
Elantecsome really good video ICs, but takes some time to
reach you
Analog Device
often, your free samples never arrive
Microchip i requested
