Status of LM3915 logarithmic bargraph display driver
« on: November 17, 2019, 02:46:52 pm »
I just noticed that American suppliers are saying the LM3915 is discontinued.  This is not an immediate problem for me because I have about a dozen of them.  But I also notice that the '3915 is abundant in China.  Is it still being made there?

Yes, it is some kind of chinese produced copy, seems to be working well - at least the 2 pieces I needed couple years back, when I wasn't willing to buy original one for the utter bullshit nonsense price.

Have you got a link to the Chinese copies?
I've been buying off eBay but would prefer a more dependable source
