ACF2101: Long-term support

Dan McArthur

Part Number: ACF2101
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IVC102,

Tool/software:

Judging from datasheet copyright dates, the ACF2101 dates from the mid-1990s. What is its long-term support outlook? We are trying to make support forecasts for 2030 and beyond. I'm curious about the IVC102 part as well.

Hi Dan,

It's definitely an older part so I can see where the concern would be. I don't know of any plans but let me ask around to see what others say and I'll get back to you.

Best Regards,

Hi Dan,

Also to clarify, I'll focus on the ACF2101 as that's the device I support. You can make a separate thread on the IVC102 to ask the team that supports that device.

Best Regards,

Hi Dan,

I've talked with the team and found a few resources.

First, our Product life cycle policies can be found here in Our commitment to product longevity and continuity of supply.

Second, for the ACF2101 specifically, the product is available for existing designs but for new designs, we recommend considering an alternative.

Hope this helps!

Best Regards,

Robert Clifton
