Yes but they didn't correct the negative reference circuit.
I notified them about that - maybe that will be corrected in the next
revision.
I've located my Vishay brochure on resistor networks from the 70's.
The TO-5 can resistor networks used 50 mil x 50 mil (50mW) and or 150
mil x 50 mil (100mW) resistor chips wire bonded to the header pins.
Either 8 pin(2 different pin circle diameter options) or 10 pin variants
were available.
Other than the resistor chip specifications (TCR, pwer dissipation, etc)
there's not much else.
