Responding to: ???'s previous message
Richard Erlacher said:
It ended with Atmel's withdrawal of their non-functional device from the market, samples of which were shipped to me and to others, only to have those of us who still cared point out the features that didn't function. They tried to make it our fault, but you know how that ended. After all, WE didn't screw it up ... They did!

RE

Don't repeat that every four weeks. Have you seen any active chip manufacturer who have not suffered any shipping delays because they either had problems with the manufacturing line or they found out they had to make one or two extra spins before they had acceptable silicon?

AT89LP51xD2 ... coming?            01/01/70 00:00      
   Sounds brilliant!            01/01/70 00:00      
      Was it AVR who made low-quantity available? Or just spin-off            01/01/70 00:00      
         Probably true            01/01/70 00:00      
            Hobbyists and students are really important            01/01/70 00:00      
               Also...            01/01/70 00:00      
         That wasn't the only thing ...            01/01/70 00:00      
            Assembler            01/01/70 00:00      
               'LP simulator            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Good            01/01/70 00:00      
                  No ... I doubt he means that ...            01/01/70 00:00      
               That may have been the case, but ...            01/01/70 00:00      
               While that may be the case ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Never used C - planned to but had to settle for half memsize            01/01/70 00:00      
                     See ... 'C' can make the memory requirement greater            01/01/70 00:00      
                        But it ain't *necessarily* so            01/01/70 00:00      
                           Yes, that's a valid basis for the choice of 'C'            01/01/70 00:00      
                        Just don't kick in open doors            01/01/70 00:00      
                           Again, you may be totally correct about that ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                        sure, and so friggin what if ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                           well ... that's not exactly what I did ...            01/01/70 00:00      
      On chip debug            01/01/70 00:00      
         Why unlikely?            01/01/70 00:00      
            That's true.            01/01/70 00:00      
            Yes, that's what I meant!            01/01/70 00:00      
         Missed the point!            01/01/70 00:00      
            Ah, sorry.            01/01/70 00:00      
   Single Clocker LP Chips From Atmel            01/01/70 00:00      
   Samples            01/01/70 00:00      
      Samples            01/01/70 00:00      
         Samples            01/01/70 00:00      
            Samples Not...            01/01/70 00:00      
               they are good at that            01/01/70 00:00      
               Atmel says...            01/01/70 00:00      
               Samples Yes!!            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Nothing here yet            01/01/70 00:00      
                     you are not in the US            01/01/70 00:00      
                        No excuse!            01/01/70 00:00      
                        Envelope?            01/01/70 00:00      
                      ... "coming" ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                        Yet another missed opportunity.            01/01/70 00:00      
                           Sorry thought this thread closed ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                              Now maybe you guys will see why I don't use 'em            01/01/70 00:00      
                              hard to tell, but...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 They're thrashing about, but ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    why the sigh ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       Probably not ... but you never know ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    datasheets            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       I'm glad they're there ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                          Sad, but true.            01/01/70 00:00      
                                             Too much "designers"            01/01/70 00:00      
                                                it's that old bugaboo ... appearance over substance ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                                I'd say            01/01/70 00:00      
                           "The part will only be available in about 3 weeks"            01/01/70 00:00      
                              I've heard/read that comment from them before ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 Common with delays for new chips            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    Quite so!            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    I have to remind the public-at-risk            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       Again            01/01/70 00:00      
                                          There's a purpose ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 I agree with Per !!            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    Not so, but it probably applies to every one of ATMEL's            01/01/70 00:00      
                           samples            01/01/70 00:00      
                              I tested...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 The AT89LP4052 works very well            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    Looks good, so far, eh?            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       A typical op            01/01/70 00:00

                                             I will wait and see.            01/01/70 00:00      
                                                Transistors are cheap            01/01/70 00:00      
                                          I can't find that            01/01/70 00:00      
                                             Sorry. I thought it was unlikely.            01/01/70 00:00

                                 thanks            01/01/70 00:00      
                              Have you received those samples, Andy?            01/01/70 00:00
