Thats interesting. I have an old semiconductor cross ref. book from the
70's and it lists a lot of Elcom parts but it skips from IC320 to
IC322.  This IC321 number on the chip wouldn't be a house number would
it? I mean a number that a kit manufacturer stamped on the IC
themselves, as in location IC321 on the circuit board. Some companies do
this so you can't easily copy their kits with off the shelf parts.
