Can I use old date code for PCA9517AD?

Hello,

I have PCA9517AD with year 2011 date codes. Would parts still be reliable? Or, do you recommend any testing prior using the parts?

Thanks

Hi,

Since PCA9517AD is characterized as MSL 1, the floor life is unlimited (at ≤30°C/85% RH), so you should not have problems with 2011 date codes parts.
