Did you check the spec of the LME49720 ?
http://www.national.com/pf/LM/LME49720.html

They had to devise a special method to measure the THD without the noise
dominating.
They're not even that shockingly expensive.

Shockingly enough in small quantities;!...

From the likes of Farnell maybe £4 seems a lot but compare that to a $400
woodenvolume control knob !

That's only £2 per divine op-amp !

What were those $150 ones for then?..


Evaluation boards I think ?


Wonder what Doc Martin would have to say;?...

You lost me

Him of Neve descent, didn't you work together once?..


DOC ? Martin ? I knew a Martin forget his surname who was in R&D.

Not Martin (M.H) (Hartley) Jones PhD you mean ? He'd left by the time I arrived.
I later did some work for him at Kelvin Hughes radar. Lovely chap. I still talk to


him very occasionally. In fact I was just on the point of asking if he'd be happy

to
be a reference on my CV !

Yes thats the one, my next door neighbour. I thought he'd be retiring by
now but he's as busy as ever...


I don't think he wants to stop. And your neighbour too ! What a small world it is.


I'd expect he'd give U a reference..


I damn well hope so after I saved a project there ! Do you see him often ? Say Graham
Stevenson sends his regards and let's see if it clicks.
