LMV358: Counterfeit chips for LMV358?

Part Number: LMV358

Tool/software:

We are using LMV358 Opamp in our design. When we ordered  LMV358 with the vendors, they supplied MV358 inplace og LMV358. . I would like to know whether the MV358 chip is exactly with the same specs as LMV358. . Also would like to know if Texas Instruments is producing MV358 Chip.

Regards,

  • What is printed on the TI shipping label?

    What is the complete marking? (Show a photo.)

  • Hello Mani,

    What is the full orderable part number?

    The datasheet shows all the package markings in the Package Option Addendum at the end of the datasheet.

    "MV" is used because of space limitations on the smaller packages. But it should end in a "I" or a "Q".

    As Clemens mentioned, can you supply a picture of the top and bottom of the device, as well as the reel label?

    Or at least describe the markings on the top and bottom of the package so we can see if it is valid?
