AMB, I ordered the EP version of the TPS7333 reg, (TPS79333DBVREP) Do you think it's an improvement over the original? I just got it because it's in stock and the normal one isn't.- mace1337

Guys, this discussion has been made countless of times before on countless of different fora, and I hate to be blunt, but do you really think this is in any way a postive addition to this topic? I used to sample a lot too, but that was when I was a "starving student", I have a decent job now...- mace1337

The TPS79333 was not in stock at Mouser, so I ordered the EP version. I guess those are better?- mace1337
