Frickin' parts

[Mike McLane]

With Covid Craziness I (like most of you) have had a real headache sourcing parts. Smallbear ususally serves the purpose, but they've been up and down. I can't seem to get simple DIP switches and Trim Pots that match the PPCB templates. I get on Mouser or Tayda and they have umpteen gillions of 'em, but I can't seem to discern which ones I need. Now I've got a growing collection of useless DIPs and Trimmers. Anybody know where I can get the right ones???

Smallbear reopened for good on Tuesday.

You need 3362P style trimpots, like these: https://www.taydaelectronics.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=3362p

This is the style dipswitch you need: https://www.taydaelectronics.com/el...itions-gold-plated-contacts-top-actuated.html
The number of "positions" (individual switches) depends on the project.
