Hi Malcolm,

Is this an original TI chip? The crooked data code marking is confusing.

We did not buy these microcircuits, we were offered to buy them. We have a need for them, we need 6 pieces.
They sent me a photo of the microcircuit. The seller said that this microcircuit has a production date of 1993. 
Therefore, he wrote to you to make sure that the component is original

Best regards,

Hi Jack,

Since (or if) it's not from an authorized distributor (such as digikey) we can't verify if these are real or not. The part is old, and while the 93 in the top right could indicate that it was produced in 1993 the markings are different from the ones we give the part today and I have no way to trace this lot to see if it's from us.

Best,

Malcolm

Hi Malcolm,

OK, thank you!

Then we will not buy these microcircuits from an unknown distributor.

Best regards,
