Wanted THAT 1246 or INA137 (DIP)

[OneRoomStudio]

[but they seem to be backordered with all of their distributors] -- I have provided you with 3 sources that have either hundreds and/or even thousands of the -- INA137PA (DIP) -- IC in-stock and their URL links to purchase them.....EVEN RIGHT HERE IN THE U.S. of A.!!! Is there a problem with you contacting any of these particular suppliers to buy what you need? I don't understand.....

(NOTE: I once worked as an "Electronics Purchasing Agent" buying millions of dollars worth of "hard-to-get" parts. So, it just becomes a matter of "knowing" where to look for "obsolete" electronic components).

I did reach out to those suppliers and hadn’t heard back yet. In my experience, they don’t rush to accommodate such small orders (which is understandable). I thought someone here might have one or two extra they would want to part with.

I have a few 1246 in stock: THAT 1246 Line Receiver -6dB

The INA137P in DIP is unfortunately EOL.

Perfect, I will place an order now! Thanks.

[they don’t rush to accommodate such small orders] -- GOT IT!!! ..... But, if you have only contacted them by e-mail, "YEAH".....it could take awhile. However, if I am * REALLY * in a hurry for some part, then a phone call and a conversation with a salesperson always gets me what I need in just a few days, even if it's only a small handful!!! But.....that's just me.

The DIP package is shown as obsolete at Digikey, you may have to buy SOIC and put them on an adapter.

I used to have some, I can check this weekend if I still have any. They may all be installed in equipment right now, I can't remember.

I think I have a bunch of the DIP 137's. Let me check and I'll reply back.

I appreciate that, but I already ordered from KA-Electronics. I’m happy to support a business that supports GDIY.

Understood. But you may find it's a bit different now depending on your location and existing relationship with the manufacturer / distributor. fwiw I work for a globally significant buyer of semiconductors and passives - either directly or via CEM. Nevertheless supply chain issues have been a major issue through COVID. It has eased off lately but still an issue wrt lead times for both production quantities and engineering samples depending on the part.

Thanks for the order! Your parts are out for pickup this morning via Priority Mail.

BTW Looks like Profusion has inventory in the UK: THAT1246P08-U Balanced Line Receiver
I was able to add 10 to my cart.

No worries, thanks for checking. I’ll contact THAT, but they seem to be back ordered with all of their distributors at the moment so I’m guessing they don’t have any.

Hey, I am from Minneapolis originally! I will start looking through our through-hole stuff today to see what we have.

Thanks Tony! I already got some from @KA-Electonics.com though, so I’m all set.
