Might be ;)

Might be easier to just solder a SO device onto a DIP header board, especially if qty is small.

Look at the 24C1024 IC's.
You will need 2 of 'em, but they are available in 8 pin DIP and it is
pretty easy to write your code to treat 2 of them as a contiguous chunk
of EEPROM.

Thanks for the confirmation on that.

This is what i've been doing in the past, guess i'll have to stick to
that. Thanks guys, much appreciated.

I find that it is very easy to solder SO-8 or MSOP-8 ICs onto the top
of DIP-8 socket with machine pins. This will then plug into a DIP-8
socket or breadboard, punchboard etc. It is necessary to use a machine
pin contact type socket as the edge wipe sockets will not plug into
another socket.

The cell phone componies drive the packaging anymore.
Finding a DIP8 solution at the higher densities is impossible.
( I for one have tried )
If you can find what you need in SMT8, this is good. A simple adapter
will get you running in no time.

Yes, I know its almost the cost of the SMT8, but when do you want to get
your project done ?
Google found lots of hits, maybe some other vendor is cheaper.
Or if you quanties are large enough, build your own.
Good luck

I need to find a serial eeprom/flash chip with at least 2Mbit memory.
Preferably I2C but any serial 3/2 wire system is OK as long as it can be
run on low speed (~100khz). I have found several memories but all of them
are surface mount models, and I need a DIP8. Small quantity order. Any
ideas? Thanks!
