Dear < Customer Name>,
Re: Announcing Obsolescence of Certain Infrared Sensors and Hall-effect Sensor ICs
Honeywell Sensing and Control (S&C) is implementing a plan at its Richardson Texas Wafer Fab facility
that will improve output and quality of our overall electronic sensor portfolio. One result of this
enhancement, however, is that S&C will no longer produce certain Infrared Sensor and Hall-effect Sensor
IC catalog listings that reflect no orders or minimal quantity orders since 2009.
Last Time Buy
Customers who require parts that are being made obsolete should plan to have their full demand and
orders placed no later than October 1, 2013 with delivery no later than December 31, 2013. This provides
customers with a 3-month period to analyze their upcoming demand requirements, and allows Honeywell
time to assist them in supporting their requirements while they investigate potential replacement design
units.
Important Dates
October 1, 2013: Last time buy. No orders will be accepted after this date. These catalog listings will
be removed from the S&C website. Additionally, documentation will be updated to reflect this change
December 31, 2013: Final delivery. Honeywell will not deliver parts after this date.
