1st IC
« on: April 21, 2011, 05:34:31 am »
Just going through the old parts bins and came across the first IC I ever bough. I purchased it while in a Radio Shack with my grandfather (WWII Midway pilot and Ham radio operator) in Northern California having no idea what it was.  It was also the same summer that Star Wars Episode 3 came out! Date code: Week 10 (February) of '73 (or October?)!

The first IC I ever got was back in like '85. Still have it. It was an LM566. Pretty cool chip actually.
