NOS CPS-B-21's Available

[YesAffinity]

Howdy all. I got notification from a chip supplier who I previously purchased some nos b-21's from, that they have more in stock. He's quoting $33 per piece, not including shipping.

I still have a few on hand, dont really need to spend money needlessly, but putting it out to the community. Grab them while you can. Below is the contact.

Thanks. I think I'm good.

Do these have high failure rates like the CPS-A-01 on CPS1 boardsets?

The B chips were also prone to failure. NOS should theoretically last as long as those installed at the time of manufacture - 15+ years. Purely speculative, but as long as some operational diligence is exercised (i.e. voltages ensured to be within range), they'll probably last longer.
