#158221 - Many don't know about datasheets at all
Responding to: ???'s previous message
The problem is that until people learn how important it is to read datasheets, they may not even understand that datasheets exists.

Instead of visiting the manufacturers web site to find out what information that is avaiable - datasheets, application notes etc, they think all relevant information is supplied on the web site where they order the components.

When they get stuck, they have black magic hardware and have to visit the nearest forum, often posting questions with the subject line "help".
