4.0 out of 5 stars Very good book but needs updating
This book is very useful for people like me who are trying to find out the manufacturer of an IC so that they can then locate a manufacturer's data sheet for it. I especially like the logo section because it allows for fast identification. However, the book is now dated (1996) and should be updated every 5 yrs or so to keep it current. A revised version is sorely needed...

This book does not clearly state the subject matter in the title. If you are only interested in identifying the manufacturer, this is the book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good book but needs updating, December 2, 2005
This review is from: The Component Identifier & Source Book: The Ultimate Cross Reference for the Electronics Industry (Paperback)
This book is very useful for people like me who are trying to find out the manufacturer of an IC so that they can then locate a manufacturer's data sheet for it. I especially like the logo section because it allows for fast identification. However, the book is now dated (1996) and should be updated every 5 yrs or so to keep it current. A revised version is sorely needed. This book is indispensible for electronic technicians and hobbyists like myself who work on a variety of different consumer electronics.
