SN74LVC1G34: Difference between SN74LVC1G34DCKT and SN74LVC1G34DCKR

Yes; R = reel, T = small reel.

We did an X-ray on the two part and found it different except for the packing

You mean even they are the same parts, the x-ray would differ between different manufacturing sites?

And this would occur on other parts as well I suspect?

Yes.

Hi, is it possible to find different x-ray for the same part from the same manufacturing sites?

Hi Clarence,

I will forward this request to the our quality/packaging team. This may be confidential information or need an NDA, they will let me know.

Because of the US holiday, there may be a delayed response as well. I will do my best to keep you updated. 

Best,
Albert

Hi Albert,

Is there any update?

Best,

Clarence

Hi Clarence,

Due to American Thanksgiving many people are out so it is taking longer than expected to receive responses from other teams.

Owen

Hi Albert,

Anything please?

Best,

Clarence

Hi Albert,

And it could happen at the same manufacturing sites as well?

Date code is as above, please help check for authenticity. Thank you

Hi Clarence,

What makes them think the parts are not genuine TI products? Are they not ordering from a TI authorized distributor?

Hi Emrys,

They got the parts from Digi-key, who claim the parts were fetched from TI directly.

Then they found out the X-ray were different from the part they were using, so they wants to check for authenticity.

Hi Albert,

Do you mean different X-ray is impossible for the SAME sites?

May I ask how many manufacturing sites are there in China right now?
