Our AMPEX Hard to Find or Obsolete IC list...
 

Use the email link at the bottom of this page to order parts...


  These IC's are used in the Ampex MM 1200, MM 1100 and ATR 100 series machines,
and have not been manufactured for over 15 years now....

  These are all NEW 'OLD STOCK' parts.
 
Most are in very short supply.   Most are unavailable anywhere else.   Yes they are expensive....
Once my stock of these IC's is gone, I do not expect to be able to get any more EVER again.

Note that I'm selling these in small quantities - mainly so you or your tech can repair your own cards
if you don't want to send them in to us for repairs.
 

Why are these IC's so expensive?     Because there are none for sale anywhere else I've looked...
so I can't buy more when my small supply runs out ---
and these are the LAST IC's I have that I will sell as parts...   the rest I will save for my own repair work.

 

Also note that since you can easily damage an IC... put it in backwards... break off a pin, etc...
these ICs may NOT be returned for any reason.
Consider them as being sold "AS-IS"... but these are NEW PARTS - UNUSED.

  NOTE: When you replace ANY IC, install a high-quality IC socket in the board...
that way you can swap ICs easily in the future!

 


You can sub out some of the Ampex IC's with minor mods to the cards...
but I highly suggest you use the ORIGINAL AMPEX PARTS !!!
