Some times while we are construction project, It required electronics components.
Here is a collection I have accumulated over time of the manufacturers that will (or will not) give free samples. Please, when ordering samples, keep these guidelines in mind:
Here is a collection I have accumulated over time of the manufacturers that will (or will not) give free samples. Please, when ordering samples, keep these guidelines in mind:
- Do not resell samples, it is dishonorable.
- Only order samples if you will use them. If you don't know what a bridge rectifier is, don't sample it!
- Avoid using yahoo, gmail, live, or other free email accounts. If possible, use a custom domain email account, or a edu account.
- Do not order too often - once a week is pushing the limits.
- Be prepared to be contacted by phone.
- If you do not have a company, just put "student" or "hobbyist".
