IGBT Data Sheet

Yes. I wrote in this thread: "if I want say the cover page and page 7, which has a diagram, I'll bring it up in Acrobat, delete pages 2 to 6, and print two pages [on one sheet] in my duplex printer."

I've had duplex printers at work and at home for some years now, and I'm rarely happy to print out stuff without using both sides of the paper. I have most of my engineering data in my computers, but for my designs I want a usable set of real paper in a folder for quick viewing by myself and others. This includes mini one-sheet versions of datasheets for the most important or unusual parts in my design. Given a two- page budget for a mini single-sheet-of-paper datasheet, it's rare for the best two pages to be the first two. It's usually the first page plus one other partway into the document. But I'm forced to live with the first two for locked documents.

You don't add comments to datasheets?? Such as where to get the part, its price, whether its in your preferred inventory, alternate choices, little gotcha's missing from the datasheet, additional information you learned from using the part, even some bench measurements? It's not unusual for me to bring up some datasheet, and discover an important relevant comment I had added years before and forgotten about.

Comments, recommended.

Please tell me again how the customer benefits from being forced to live with locked datasheets?

Doesn't work in my Acrobat v7.0.8

I don't have a single "Pages" pane, just Pages ___ to ___

Maybe you're using a MAC version ?:-)

Thanks, I'll try that. I keep forgetting I'm a licensed GSView user ;-)

Oops! Sorry. You are right; it will only print a sequence. I have to use another way to print several isolated pages, and the only way to make double-sided prints is to reverse the pages manually.

When my venerable hp6L died a few years ago I bought an hp1320 that prints duplex... love it.

Doesn't look like they've reduced in price much since '89. You can get better parts for the money.

PDFs of scanned images on abse. 2M each. Maybe someone else can shrink them.

MSG180L43 isn't familiar.

Hi RL, Thank you very much for the info. Regarding a better part for the money, I found a large UPS at a scrap yard and pulled 6 MG200s and 2 MG300s plus a few other goodys and got it all for $5.00. Thanks again, You made my day. Mike

I wish you hadn't told me that.

Considering that Toshiba doesn't seem to make GTRs any more, and that it takes many man-years to develop the junk that you just disassembled randomly as scrap, I see that the world has just gained another tiny pile of kibble.

Mind you, Exide stuff may already be kibble, just roling off the assembly line.

Hi RL, Sorry to cause you the grief. I don't know what a GTR is, can you tell me? The UPS was a Toshiba Series 4000. Mike

It's what they called their modules, without a printed explanation in the data book with that title. If memory of an old article serves, I'm afraid it's one of these unfortunate advertising efforts in a foreign language, the first word of which was 'giant'. ouch.

This is stuff that I put into the spreadsheet in which I catalogue all my technical information -- datasheets, appnotes, whatever.

This is indeed something that ought to be added to the DS itself. Like textmarker-style highlighting.

I'll be interested in hearing about that, too.
