okay guys. Thank you! I got home and ended up ordering that chip on ebay (Initially I didnt because I am short on time which is an issue when shipping is concerned) In the meantime I will build a voltage divider instead with the above recommended method
If you need chips on time, I have had good luck with Digikey. They send you an email when they ship which is many times about an hour after you place your order. They are that quick. Most of the time, like 90% or so, I get it in 48 hours and that is with normal USPS first class which they charge about $4.50 in shipping for small orders of about 8 ounces or less. This is for Minnesota to Illinois, you may be further away. They will beat eBay sellers on shipping the vast majority of the time. I can't recommend them highly enough, they have good prices too especially if you are ordering a decent amount and hit the first price break (usually 10-25 for ICs and 200-250 for passives, etc).
