where to buy IC tubes | 18 April, 2012

We buy TSSOPs from Digikey, but the tubes they come in are too short for our PNP machine.

I'm trying to buy just a handful of these IC tubes. These say 26020129 TSSOP 4.4 0949 on them.

We'd like about 20". Can anyone help?

Thanks very much.

I did contact ITW and they have MOQ of $1800.

We just need about 5x 21" tubes. Do you know by chance if these others do small quantities?

Hi Gaz,

I know it's not the most elegant solution but why don't you just buy 20 tubes of TSSOP logic IC's such as 74HCT27PW (depends on width)- these type of parts are around $0.05 each so you are not going to be paying more than $2.50 for a tube of 50.

Cheers,

Rob.

Just wait. Someone here is throwing 100s of them away every week. Sooner or later they will connect and ask for your address and want to know if they could send you a monthly consignment of a hundred or so tubes.

I ordered some of those ICs but the tubes they sent them in were shorter ones. I need about 21" long.
