Renesas optical sensor EOL Notification
2021-06-11
Dear Valued Customer,
We regret to announce that United Microelectronics Corporation (UMC), the supplier contracted by Renesas to manufacture our optical sensors, has notified Renesas that they will discontinue all support for the manufacturing process on 12/31/2021. We have been unable to negotiate an extension to this timeline, nor have we identified a suitable alternate manufacturing site. It is thus necessary to move the affected optical sensor products to end-of-life status.
Appendix A includes the full list of impacted products.
Renesas fully appreciates the challenges this unexpected development will cause your programs, and we are committed to working with you to minimize the impact.
Due to the abbreviated timeline presented to Renesas by our sub-contractor and in order to ensure your lifetime buy needs are fully supported, Renesas is requesting that all customers urgently coordinate with their Renesas account executive to place orders for the lifetime quantities required of each optical sensor you use by 31 July 2021, with delivery requested no later than March 31, 2022.
Although Renesas continues to work with UMC to support our customer’s requirements, UMC has not guaranteed that all LTB orders can be fulfilled, therefore Renesas urgently requests LTB orders be placed as soon as possible. All LTB orders must be in place by 31 July 2021.
A formal product End-of-Life notification will follow this informational letter within the next several weeks. We apologize for the difficulty and look forward to working with you on a smooth transition.
