        Check out the old Radio Shack they have a very neat little one
called TLC548 it's very flexible.The only draw back with this chip is
that it dumps out the data serialy,but you can add a 8-bit register and
change all that.It can sample a signal at 40Khz per sec,and comes with
an internal clock,sample and hold,8-bit A/D converter,data register,and
control logic all in one package.I have had no problems with this little
beast.

           I have no connections with the Rat Shack what so ever.
