Al, maybe you can go and buy AD584's from a proper source and populate your boards with them. I sometimes buy things cheaply knowing that they will probably be fakes, or populated with fake ic's, but if the PCB is nice I simply replace the fake ic's and get a good PCB cheap. With fake I mean both real fakes and re-used chips.
