Hi,
I have a question about the finish on the leads, we are detecting that the leads have some kind of chemical, maybe.
Is this normal on this part?
We received these parts direct from TI.

Hi Erik,
I will reach out to our team internally and get back to you once I hear back from them.
Thank you,

Hi Joshua,
Any feedback from your team?
I just want to confirm if this condition is normal.
Thank you

Hi Erik,
I got confirmation that the lead finish is NiPdAu.
We are otherwise unaware of any other chemical finish.
Thank you,
Joshua Austria
Hi Josua,
Therefore, the pins look like darkness, due the finish NiPdAu?
Thank you.

Hi Erik,
All we can note is that the leads have a NiPdAu finish.
TI does not add any other chemical finish on those pins past what has been noted. If this is the chemical you are detecting, then this is normal. Other than that finish, those other chemicals are not from TI.
Thank you,
Joshua Austria
