Analog Devices buys Linear Technology

[TiN]

  One of best UI site in the industry.

I figured it was a matter of time before linear.com was deprecated.  I expect legacy Linear Technology parts to go the same way and have already started switching to alternatives.  None of those are parts from Analog Devices because I cannot find anything in their atrocious selection guides.

Linear.com is moving to Analog.com by the end of March. At that time, Linear.com will be redirected to Analog.com. More information coming soon.

I so much hate shareholders who sold their shares in Linear. Idiots.

Linear.com is dead. The /docs still link though, so not that many dead links.

I bet Maxim is going to do a bit better after this fuckup by AD. I'm certainly not going to be very inclined to spec a LT or AD part anymore.

Shame, as I really liked LT. AD has always been a bit meh.

The website loss is a shame. On the other hand now Mouser stocks LT parts, before they didn't, and I seldom buy from digikey, so to me it's an overall win
