Great idea for this thread, I am currently stuck in obsolete Semiconductor Hell.
I blew a chip on my Rottendog card MPU 327-1, it's a 74HCT9114N, and my current options are - Order one from Hong Kong (no indication from seller if it's going on a flight tonight OR will be meandering it's way across the Ocean in a container with $ store crap. (I've had Ali -Express shite take several month's)- Pay $37 us to ship a $3.50 cent Chip from the US (total boning) or .................
Has anyone had any luck locating chips in Canada ???????. Rottendog was closed when I called.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. The board is in a 1980 Firepower.
