www.digikey.com/Techzone/category-table.page?site=us&lang=en&zone=microcontroller&docType=app_notes&technology=&supplier=150&country=global&name=App_Notes_Microchip_Technology

search for AN1101 at digi key found it. But search at microchip.com did

not... and it is called 1101a now. Data warehouse indexing fail? It's okay

it happens to many.

I SO wish the document pdf name would reflect the content. It is not that

hard to call it an1101-doc012345.pdf . I can vouch for it, since I am forced

to save them renamed like that to be able to find them again in my computer(s).

I am in agreement. Perhaps relating a .tag file to it or some such. I have collected a lot of data that is very awkward to use.

Hello,

I don't think Microchip pulled out this document:

The search engines on most web sites often pale in comparison to google.

The following google search will pull up your desired document as the first hit:

"site:microchip.com filetype:pdf app note 1101"

Hehe, 2 available, from $0.03 to $9999.75 new and used. That is not a search

fail, it is a commercial tactic. I thought about it many times, it is

useless to find something listed by price in the usual way, but think about

the search cross section it captures from searchers, from the seller's point

of view.

What really p* me off is many (many) sites which enter some sort of

agreement with search engines and which ALWAYS appear in a search result,

with the search term /not/ being present on the landing page. Very frequent

for electronic parts. Technically, I think it is fraud, unless they pay

google a lot of money to have all those hundreds of search terms as adwords

for themselves, os similar. I imagine it would cost a tidy sum to do that

for say the 1000 most common electronic parts, per month.

While we're off the subject :-) - has anyone noticed the recentish

change in Digikey's pricing search behaviour.

Either most lamentable  OR I'm doing something different that I haven't noticed.

I could describe the change but it's harder to do (I found after a

line or few) than just ask.

Anyone else wanting the old version back?

Any clues why the change?

Yes.  They've limited the ability to search by price for a specific  quantity... which was a nice feature.

Cheers,

-Neil.

This is one of the reasons I switched to Bing. It still

sometimes happens but much less frequently.
