Look for P202-ND. I'm not sure what the "dash" suffix signifies, but it
seems that Digikey ends _all_ their part numbers with the same one.

ND means "No Discount".  Parts that had ND didn't have a price break for
large quantities while parts that were missing the ND would have breaks
for 10, 25, 50, etc.

Good story, but demonstrably not true. Current case in point,

http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/BR-2325%2FHCN/P202-ND/45791

has -ND, and has quantity discounts - 1.73/1, 15.53/10, etc.

What I always heard is that "ND" is "New Digikey" and it is now a relic of a changeover they made in their part numbering system years ago.

What a brave new world we live in, that we have Digikey urban legends!
