I have good luck with Google. After the search, I go to the site that has a major manufactures name in the URL. That way, I'm guarantted of getting a good quality data sheet.

This is the one I use most often:

Hello John,

Digikey and Arrow ;-)

If neither got the part it is most likely a boutique part. Then I do my best not to need that device in a design for a client.

For general ideas of what might be out there in case of an unusual project I use Google.

No joke: The other less electronic search engines are plain old databooks. Anything in there that suffices for a design is most likely going to be dirt cheap by now. That makes the client's purchasing folks and their CFO happy.

findchips.com, then go to one of the suppliers - most will have a pointer to the mfgrs data sheet and you've got price and availability as a bonus.
