One recent datasheet has footnote superscripts on several of the specs... but no corresponding footnotes. LoL means Lots of Luck. -- If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end with doubts, but if he will be content to begin with doubts he shall end in certainties. Francis Bacon

If it works for you, use it. I simply described my method. I'm currently building an index for all the PDF files I have for test equipment. They are sorted by brand, then model number but some cover more than one model so the HTML base index lets me find what I want with a couple clicks. I can describe the item in detail. on the index pages. I have 34,293 files in 4,030 folders (186 GB) of manuals HP/Agilent/Keysight has 6,183 files by itself. I have 5,866 datasheets, in 733 folders (3.80 GB), so that needs work as well. I save every PDF or other document that I find for future use. Sometimes it takes hours to locate something online when it is misnamed or misspelled, so why do it again? BTW, www.archive.org has scans of a lot of old databooks that you can download for free. They are also in the process of scanning and processing all the manuals from Manuals Plus.

No idea, been root on all my puters since 1998, only data I ever lost was when I dropped a harddisk In the early days ran the servers (http ftp) at home, hundreds attacks every day, none succeeded. Have a large iptables file... Now the server is at godaddy, happy they do the checking. And everything here is backed up anyways. It is hard to hack a 3TB disk when it is off. companies and people get hacked because in 3 weeks you can become a sysadm and web developer by following an online course. I remember in the old days asking what was it 'Hacktic' or something like that to attack my server to see if they could get in I watched them trying.. No go. OTOH I know Big Brothel is of course in full control of every thing I do, google tells them everything I searched for, banks and paypal tells them everything I bought online, and governments can take with one law everything you have away. and you fear HACKERS??? LOL

I tend to get pretty floral about parts that aren't super familiar. For instance, I have an op amp datasheet named OPA818decomp2.7GHzGBW_2.2nVnoiseFETinput2pfCin1400VusSevenBucks.pdf. Makes it a breeze trawling through my ~/electronics/datasheets/ directory tree looking for stuff.

I want TI to use it. Once we officially put a part in stock, it gets its own PDATA folder, with data sheets, pictures, app notes, our measurements, whatever we know. -- Father Brown's figure remained quite dark and still; but in that instant he had lost his head. His head was always most valuable when he had lost it.

No idea at all? How about knowing someting is bad and doing it anyways? Experian or capital one might be hiring, they'd like your type.
