Hi Lorena, good day. I would like to know why the measurement stated in page 76 and page 78 are different. Please find the below circled information are different, Would you please advise why is it different? Thank you.

Hi Ren, I'll check on this with our subject matter experts. Will reply to you by Friday or sooner.

hi Lorena, thanks for checking into this.

Apart from the measurement, I have another question too.

Would you also advise why the shape of the leg is different?

The below i circled the part which we found that the shape different.

You may see the slanting part is different from drawing. Would you please advise why it`s different?

Thank you.

Hi Ren, the drawing is just a representation of a formed TO-92 lead (not straight).

Hi Lorena, thanks for the prompt reply.

Noted, i will inform the customer the same.

I will wait for your update regarding the drawing in datasheet.

Thank you!

hi Lorena, good day. May i have your update for the information of the drawing? 

hi Lorena, sorry..what do you mean by ePOD? do you mean the datasheet will be updated?

Hi Lorena, thanks for the information. May i know estimate when it will be updated? So, I can upload the updates datasheet from the portal?

Also, The correct value should be the 2.4-2.9mm range. Does it mean TI will update 2.6 -/+0.2 to 2.4~2.9?

Hi Ren, please expect to see it by early May.

Hi Lorena,

Sorry to revert for this again.

But we refer back to the datasheet, there are 2 different specification in the datasheet, page 76 and page 78.

Page 76 refers to the Package Outline while page 78 refers to the Tape Specification.

The both page are referring to the measurement of the item AFTER packing?

Is it correct understanding?

Kindly confirm, thank you.

Hi Ren, that's my understanding too but let me double check with our subject matter experts. 

Hi Lorena, please advise any update for this matter?
