LMC660: LMC660AIM vs LMC660AIMX

john van strien
Prodigy 35 points

Part Number: LMC660

My company has been using the LMC660AIM/NOPB for years. I see in the Package Option Addendum that it is obsolete and that you have the LMC660AIMX/NOPB, LMC660AIMX/NOPB.A and LMC660AIMX/NOPB.B. There is no description in the datasheet of the differences between these parts. Can you tell me what they are?

While looking at this I also noticed that the datasheet on your website and the one I downloaded last year are both Rev D, with identical revision histories - and yet they are different! From the Package Option Addendum onward many pages are updated. This can be confusing. Please don't do this.

Thanks.

    Hi John,

    These products are the same but come in a different carrier types. The LMC660AIM/NOPB is delivered in a tube, which is obsolete, while the LMC660AIMX/NOPB is available in tape and reel. There is no difference between the LMC660AIMX/NOPB.A and LMC660AIMX/NOPB.B.

    The package option addendum changes based on what packages are active, which changes separately from the body of the datasheet. For example, if we change the formatting of a datasheet to our latest formatting standards, we would release a new version of the datasheet with a new revision letter with updated revision history, but this is separate from the package option addendum. 

    Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Best Regards,

    Alex Curtis
