Hi TI experts!

We've noticed different color of leads cross-section and I would like to ask if this has effect on the device performance?

Ireen,

I haven't seen this before, but no this will not have affect on device performance. Can you share the top device markings of both devices?

Regards,

Ireen,

Thank you, I wanted to verify these were legitimate TI devices, and I've confirmed they are not counterfeit.

Again though, the difference in cross-section color won't have an effect on device performance, all SOIC leadframes for TCAN1043-Q1 are NiPdAu, and this difference in lead cross-section color may be the result of the angle the light is hitting the surface from the cut + any flux or solder material on the surface.
