Hi, i'm currently doing a project related to home automation. i need to control relays with my 8051. for wireless communication i decided to use XBEE PRO but unfortunately i couldn't get it. can anyone tell me any alternative like RF module?? its number, range etc. please mention most common modules if you can... thanx.
Why not just use the real Google?!
Or why not just look in the catalogues of suppliers in your area? the real google gives a lot of non-part responses the digikey link to the datasheet is to the manufacturer the digikey 'google' give (reference) prices the real google does not have parametric search .....
the catalogues of suppliers in your area is plural, digikey is singular

But he's going to have to end up with those catalogues anyhow to see which one(s) he can actually get
with those catalogues anyhow to see which one(s) he can actually get with brands and partnumbers is a whole lot easier than "going in blind"
another thing is that the "general search" may have revealed a desirable feature that the device in catalog #1 do not have.
is he? why? is the law now requiring him to have to get them?
How else is he going to determine which ones are actually available to him?
as you suggested yourself, google is an option (along with alternative search providers).
But Google (et al) won't (necessarily) show what's actually available to him through the channels that he will actually use - hence the need to consult actual "catalogues" to verify actual availability.
Note that, in his opening post, he had identified a module - but said he "couldn't get it". Hence I conclude that a key part of the question is not just to identify any module, but specifically ones that are available to him through whatever (uspecified) channels that he uses...
hence the need to consult actual "catalogues" to verify actual availability.
rarely do cataloges show what is actually available in actual real time!
