**Quote style:
To avoid  thousands of quote marks  and colliding with quote  marks in
the  text, I  have used  a modified  quotation style.   Anything in  a
section  titled "Info:"  or "Features:"  is a  quote from  a datasheet
unless otherwised stated in that  section.  In these sections anything
inside  [] is  an  annotation and  not part  of  the datasheet  unless
otherwise stated in that section.

Under any other section, the text is my own unless indicated with "".

Also  this document  does not  contain the  entire datasheet  for each
chip, usually only the first few pages are included to give an outline
of it. Some datasheets are 100s of pages other are only 1.
