SAMPLE ELECTRONICS COMPONENTS, How to: Get Free Electronic Parts for your Projects Getting Samples from Manufacturers

Free sample for Ic and electronics componets are required when you are doing some project. It is very easy to get it fromj following adress.If you are facing any problem contact me at mishraanil8@gmail.com

Here are just a few of the companies my students have gotten samples from. Almost all of the major semiconductor companies have sent my students parts (and it was without me getting involved): 

Microchip - Microcontrollers and other ICs (Very student friendly) 
http://www.microchip.com/samples/ 

Linear Technology - OpAmps, Comparators, Switching Power Supply ICs (also pretty friendly)

Note: I also highly recommend LT's FREE Spice simulator! Its at:

National Semiconductor - Many types of analog and digital ICs 
http://www.national.com/kbase/category/M... 

Analog Devices - Many types of analog and digital ICs 
http://www.analog.com/en/content/samples... 

Texas Instruments - Lots of stuff 
http://www.ti.com/ 

Freescale - Many Discrete and ICs

P.S. I think a bigger problem is getting parts in packages that are hobby friendly ... like DIP packages instead of tiny smt parts.
