Did anyone ever find out why US Digital discontinued the E4P? I got an email from them confirming that they don't recommend using the E4P for new designs, but suggested using the E5 instead (much more $$$).

She assured me that there are no plans for the S4 or E4P encoders to be discontinued. They are working to resolve the inventory issue, but plan to continue to supply them to FIRST teams.

I get the feeling that they might not be able to support an order of the magnitude necessary for the module to be incorporated into a consumer product with volumes of tens of thousands, but have no trouble supporting our small quantity orders.

Sounds like they aren't discontinuing them but do have limited stock.

Found this interesting URL:
http://www.avagotech.com/pages/us_di...ross_reference

Hmmm... interesting that Avago was supplying the parts for US Digital, and now they are not.

The last checks were cashed, and the last orders shipped today. This concludes the group buy. Everyone be sure to share news about how you use the encoders.
