Who dunnit?

It's a Fairchild synchronous switcher, actually a very nice part
electrically.

They did an eval board, but it didn't work (!) so they'll have to spin
it. So the sample is untestable.

I think we'll go with the National TSSOP-20 equivalent, with a single
power pad on the bottom. This Fairchild thing would be a nightmare to
rework.

I've started seeing a number of parts with multiple, funny-shaped
power pads on the bottom.
