MSP430 stock outage ? - frank_ymail - Sep 8 5:08:53 2009
Hi,
does anybody heard about a stock outage of MSP430 ? Most distributors have no stock and
talk about 14 to 20 weeks of lead time ! Is it a side effect of the financial crisis ?
Regards,
Frank.

MSP430F2xxx and more precisely MSP430F2272 in QFN packaging.

Message #42990 is about the same. I copy/paste my answer to that:

By online distributors I mean the likes of Mouser and Digikey who have their invertory
on-line. There is also South Components, K-1 technologies, Comsit and many others. Some of
them might want to charge you 1.6 times their buying price, but you can get a reasonable
price if you put a little presure on them or if you can show them the price of a
competitor.
Some of these distributors are in the business of buying leftover stocks at discounted
prices and then reselling them at competitive prices.
Hope it helps,
Michael K.

I attempted a small order of device samples a week or so ago, and ran into back-order
problems for several devices in tssop packages (not just msp430 parts, but including a
common type msp430f2132 I have in a design project.) This was the first time I'd seen this
problem from TI in the last 4-5 years.

Not only TI microcontroller outage but I have 6 other TI parts that I am trying to cross
over to another vendor with stock.

Yikes. Maybe someone should post to the ETE community on TI and ask?

Maybe more posts with more detail - I'm assuming others needed analog parts,
etc. - other than esoteric MSP430's.
