    Looking for caller id chip

    Thanks for the list of chip companies, I'll look into them. I understand that buying chips in low quantities like 1 or 2 will make the chips more expensive, but doesn't $7.50 - $12.00 a chip sound too expensive? I can buy a phone with caller id for $10. Why should a single caller-id chip...

    Looking for caller id chip

    Also, it looks like the minimum purcahse at US Bid is $500. I would think these chips are less than a dollar.

    Looking for caller id chip

    Looking for caller id chip

    I have done a web search. I cannot seem to find a chip that is not obsolete. I saw several references to a Motorola chip that is obsolete. I saw a chip listed for Mitel I believe it was but couldn't find it on their site. A lot of the articles I have seen on the web are dated around...

    Looking for caller id chip

    Looking for caller id chip

    I am looking for a current chip to do caller id. I have tried to find some but have found them to be obsolete or unavailable. I am not an electrical enginner, so plase keep phrasing very layman-like. Where can I get the chip, and how much should I expect it to cost? Thanks.
