digikey hardly sells everything, but they do sell various 555 chips from 12 manufacturers, at least per the parametric search.
Its fun to look at the weird options available. A UFBGA-8 package is available... weird, never used one of those before. TI sells chips that go up to 3 MHz. TI will also sell bare dies if you have a wire bonder. Supply currents are available down to 30 uA.
- kens 11y agoBuying bare dies would be really convenient for my die photos / analysis, but unfortunately with the Digikey minimum quantities, I'd need to buy 25 @ $4 each which isn't worthwhile.
- madengr 11y agoI have used a UFBGA. It was awful, taking three revisions of paste mask to get the thing soldered properly.
