EOL of products



I found the following part status as active in TI website.

TLV431AQDBVR
MAX3232IDBR
TPS23750PWP
TPS54332DDAR
TPS73601DBVR
TPS2590RSAT
TPS63030DSK

1. Will the above parts move to EOL in the near future?
2. How many years will you offer support for above ICs?
3. If EOL, which is the replacement for it?

  • Hello Pavritha, 

    As Clemens suggested, please refer to the Product Life Cycle page: www.ti.com/support-quality/quality-policies-procedures/product-life-cycle.html  .  

    In addition, please refer to the General Quality Guidelines: www.ti.com/lit/ml/szzq076o/szzq076o.pdf ,

    where it states:  

    23 PRODUCT WITHDRAWAL/DISCONTINUANCE
    TI’s Product withdrawal/discontinuance process complies with J-STD-048, latest issue. TI makes an effort to not
    obsolete Products out of convenience. Convenience means: low running device, poor yields, limited
    customer adoption or similar items. TI’s obsolescence withdrawal schedule provides a longer lead time than the
    industry standard. TI allows 12 months for the last order and an additional 6 months to take final delivery of obsolete
    items. In rare circumstances, an accelerated withdrawal schedule may be necessary. In such cases, TI will communicate
    the last buy and final delivery dates in the End-of-life (EOL) notice, along with an explanation of the circumstances
    necessitating the early withdrawal.

    Your question crosses several Product Groups, and all follow these guidelines. 

    Regards,
