Buying electronic components - what does all this actually mean?

[backwardspy]

I'm looking to buy a couple of Schmitt Inverter chips, but I can't work out the differences between all the different ones.

Those two look pretty much the same, what does (RC) and DILRC mean? I know DIL is just the "style" of the chip (if that makes sense), what's RC?

If you don't know what it is, and are not willing to google it, then it is not meant for people like you

it's only for those who need to know.... for you ... higher price = better

I did google, hence why I know what DIL is.
But I can't find out what the RC means, which is why I asked here.
You don't have to be a dick; if you know then tell me. If you don't, then don't bother posting.

He isn't a dick he just said that you should try to look yourself.

It's sorted now, I got the answer off someone else.

And I just mean he came across as a bit antagonistic. Whatever.
I won't bother posting questions like this in future, no one ever seems willing to answer

The RC one can operate in lower temperatures.

Finally, someone who's post might have a little bit of use to it :golfclap:
Anyway, I'm just gonna buy the cheapest one I can find, it's only for a student project.
