logpio keeps the log.
We are a small engineering office with two jobs. We write down what we looked for, whom we asked and what we learned, with the date.
The log is short because the office is new.

ASecond-source research
Some electronic components are hard to buy: one manufacturer, long lead times, no stock at the usual distributors. The job is to find a second source or an equivalent part. The method is email to the application engineers at manufacturers and distributors, asking what the datasheet leaves out: how the part differs from the original, whether samples exist, the lead time, the end-of-life status. The first email sent will be an entry in the log.

BWeekly bulletin
One bulletin a week for people who work with electronics. No issue has been published. Issue 1 will be an entry in the log.
