Sorry, I didn't get your point, what is package designator?

Hi Jim,
How are you? This was their response: TI guidance is to use a maximum force of ~20N.
They ran a test on the RAS package, and it could withstand 200 N of force but there is no specific information on the DRC package.
How much force will the customer apply to the device?
Thank you,
Josh Nachassi
