TMS320F28232: Package symbolization questions

Reed,

        These are rather unusual questions. I am curious to know what customer's motivation is in asking these questions. You can respond to me privately, if you wish. You can do this by initiating a "Friendship Request".

Reed said:

 1.Is the silk screen on the chip body carved by laser or by other devices?

Laser etch.

Reed said:

 2.What is the distance from the screen printed surface of the chip body to the highest part encapsulated inside?

Not specified.

Reed said:

3. If we want to remove the silk screen on the part body ourselves, what equipment is recommended to use?

TI does not recommend modification of devices this way as it would void the product warranty.

Reed said:

4.If it is required that the incoming materials are not engraved with silk screen for shipment, can it be arranged?

No.
