Mouser Filters

[dlazzarini]

Boy I guess I’m really late to the game. I’ve always ordered from mouser using my phone and I’ve actually got to the point where I was doing pretty well. Today for no reason I sat down at the desktop and discovered a whole new realm. The filter system is WAY easier than the way I was doing it so if any of you are in the same boat and like to do things from your phone stop it. What a difference.

I'm getting better at Mouser these days but for a long time it felt like sitting an exam just to order one part...

Filters are your friend with Mouser & DigiKey. Don't over constrain though. Sometimes I have to undo some of the filtering to find what I want. Example: I wanted a 680Ω 1% 1/8W MF resistor. They didn't have that, but did have a 681Ω 1% 1/8W MF. Close enough.

I don’t use the app, but I use the desktop site on my phone and have no issues.

Took me a while to work out what those MF resistors were...

Yep I’ve already run into that.
