TSB82AA2 misc questions

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: XIO2213B, TSB82AA2B, TSB82AA2, TSB12LV26-EP

Here are a couple of questions:

1. TSB82AA2IPGE shows active. Any time to obsolete it soon? When would be the Last TIme Buy?

2. I see TSB82AA2IPGE in NCNR status and replaced by TSB82AA2IPGEEP (extended plastic) What is the main difference? Are they functional identical? How long will the EP version be supported by TI?

3. What si the difference between TSB82AA2IPGEEP and TSB82AA2BIPGE? THey are both recommended as replacement for TSB82AA2IPGE. Which one will be supported longer. Also the TSB82AA2BIPGE shows available on your website but is not listed on the datasheet, see 1.5 Ordering Information: http://focus.ti.com/lit/ds/scps172/scps172.pdf

4. Will XIO2213B (1394b Integrated device with PCIx) be offered in industrial temp?

5. How long will TSB12LV26IPZT be supported by TI?

  • Teodor,

    Before I answer any of your specific questions.  There is a newer version of the TSB82AA2 available, including industrial temperature range - please see the TSB82AA2B.  the I-temp version in the PGE package is the TSB82AA2BIPGE.

    Now to your specific questions:

    1) It is the TI Analog Policy to not EoL devices for convenience purposes and has no plans for End-of-Life.  Texas Instruments will not obsolete products for 'convenience' purposes - in other words, if we can make the part, we will, even if the production volumes are low. However, if for some unforeseen reason, Texas Instruments is no longer able to reliably manufacture this product; we will work closely with all customers on an End-of-Life plan.  Our standard End-of-life policy provides for one (1) year of order entry and an additional six months for deliveries. If we have flexibility on these time frames we will communicate this with our customers to best serve their needs.

    2) See above as a lower cost alternative - TSB82AA2BIPGE.  That said, The EP version is identical functionally, it is more robustly tested and is packaged in different material.

    3) The B is a newer design version of the non rev device.  High-level functionality is the same.    The EP version is just a special packaged verion of the non-rev version of the device.

    4) There are no specific plans for this at this time.

    5) The TSB12LV26IPZT is actually owned by TI's Mixed Signal Automotive Business Unit an dthey will need to comment on that question.  I will ask them and get back here as soon as I have an answer.

  • Dan, thank you very much for your answers. Greatly appreciated.

    I may see you next week in Dallas at the FAE summit.

  • On #5, the TSB12LV26IPZT is actually going end-of-life and the last order entry date is 5/20/2011.  If extended temp is needed the TSB12LV26-EP is the recommended replacement.  If commercial temp is adequate, then the TSb12LC26 will continue to be supported.
