NRND — plan the BOM transition
This MCU carries a lifecycle status of NRND (Not Recommended for New Designs). That means TI has flagged it for eventual end-of-life; it is still available for existing production runs but should not be specced into a new board spin. For a BOM that already carries this line, the procurement path is a last-time-buy or a bridge to a replacement part through independent distribution. Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ — availability and current pricing confirmed at quote time.
Package and assembly note
The 48-LQFP package has a 7x7 mm body. Standard reflow profile applies; check the MSL rating before the oven.
