Brings up a question: I've only see those from Fairchild and
single-source always make me uncomfortable. Is there anything FFF
compatible from others?

FFF ?

There are a bunch of families and vendors of tiny single- double-
and triple-gate SMD products. It's dizzying. I'm skeptical that so
many are needed and economically viable, so I too would be cautious
about depending on the exact characteristics of any given part.

OTOH, there are so many pin-compatible substitutions that a generic
requirement shouldn't be that difficult to replace--if not outright
2nd source--methinks.

Fairchild, OnSemi, TI, NXP, and Toshiba all make parts, off the top
of my head.

c) make your own, as Frank suggested. That's what I did as an early
user of 74hc, before Schmitt-trigger parts were available.

Then there's always the roll-your-own approach if you can tolerate
the effects of feedback delay. Many times you just want an
oscillator, or to keep the thing from staying linear & wasting power.

Cheers,
