Almost every semiconductor manufacturer offers datasheets to his products on CDROM. These CDROMs can often be received for free from the manufacturer. In some cases there are request forms on the manufacturers homepages. Here are some links:
· Free CD-ROM Altera Digital Library· Free CDROM containing datasheets from Maxim
· Free CDROM from Spezial-Electronic containing datasheets from Maxim, Epson and more
· Free CD-ROM Technical Library from Microchip
