68300

Hello everybody

I have been waiting now for a few days to see if anybody else in the group
has received PCN 7622 ( dated 30 May ) which details the last time buy of
the above, in particular the MC68CK331CPV16 which we have just designed
in!!!
This is because of the closure of the manufacturing plant used to produce
these parts.

We checked extensively with Motorola before using this part and now feel
*very* exposed.

I am told that, because of customer complaints received since it was issued,
that this PCN will be revoked and these parts moved to another plant but now
need some convincing that this is more than a temporary respite.

Has anybody else seen this PCN ( I can email it to you apparently if you are
interested ) or obtained any response from Motorola regarding it. I am very
interested in sharing any information.
