This is more of a heads up - if you're building any Reloaded boards, please now be aware that TI have been curtailing their product lines, so things like the SN75150 (replaces the MC3488 in the SE Reloaded) & SN75175 RS-422/RS-485 serial interface IC's used in the SE/30 Reloaded and more, are going EoL!

Likewise a lot of 'D' package (SO SMD parts) are being NLA'ed, like 74-series logic.

Grab some from mouser while you can!

AHHHH! I'm not smart enough to know what "and more" means.

Does anyone have a list of part numbers for chips that are needed for these reloaded projects that aren't already found on the donor logic board?

And more meaning - used in things like the IIci, IIsi etc - the 75175 is pretty ubiquitous in earlier 68k macs.
