Default Re: Commodore PET 2001 voltage regulators

It's up to you of course but the Hitachi devices are due to arrive at the start of next week, so maybe wait until I've had a chance to try programming one as they are quite a bit cheaper than TMS2532s.

Buying ICs of any sort online can be a bit of a minefield, the more desirable or rare a part is the greater the possibility that it has been faked, often by rebranding / rebadging a relatively common device as the rarer one. You really don't know what you're going to get these days.

I'll let you know how these ones work out.
