Tool/software:
I'm byer of part TPS23730.
I'm facing to problem that regarding to IT's part below.
We bought TPS23730 from our supplier.
But we found out different point about marking information of Spec and actual marking.
Actual components have additional characters: 33ANYP8 G4.
We cannot find information of 33ANYP8 G4 in Specification.
Could you help us to explain the meaning of 33ANYP8 G4?
And please give us reason why TI not add information of 33ANYP8 G4 to Spec?
Hi Ngan,
The device marking is standard on the device and the device may have additional top markings as stated in the data sheet.
The additional information is related to environmental category and lot trace code. For this device, the 7-digit code is (33ANYP8) represents the lot trace code which links to a single lot processed through one controlled assembly flow.
G4 marking ensures TI's product meets the Pb-free requirements, RoHS requirements and industry driven JS-709 low halogen requirements in addition to the JEDEC J-STD-609 Pb-free categories.
For more information I would recommend checking out TI's policy for top marking information and other definitions at the following links:
