1) First there i came to know there are 2 type of 4051 ics by UTC and Phillips, So which one must use or both can be used ?
2) As far i have seen on this website, there is success stories only of kit users. So if their any one who is successful without buying the kit ?
3) Is Mega32-p is same as atmega32 ?

So anyway if this project will be cheaper for than you all, if it is successfully completed.
Something around PKR 1200 total budget($15, 19 Euro and 21 British pounds).

There are dozens of manufacturers for this circuit ... You must use a 74HC4051 compatible (only with Dmitri schematics).

There is lot of success stories with the All In One Kit, It's easy to build.
There is also success stories with full diy.

Synthex's kit works, is high quality and is easy to make if you take your time, follow the FAQ, and know how or learn how to properly solder and identify components, etc. He was also extremely responsive to questions I had along the way (as was Dimitri). Shipping was only a week to the US from France. Highly recommended!
