Numerous Products Reached EOL Following the Closure of NXP’s Chandler Fab | LTB for S08 MCUs and Automotive ICs is August 6, 2027

Last Updated: September 26, 2026

NXP Semiconductors has issued Product Discontinuation Notification “202608007DN” regarding legacy products that will not be transferred to alternative manufacturing sites following the phased sale of the Chandler Fab and Chandler Probe in Chandler, Arizona, to Nokia.The affected products include the S08 series of MCUs, automotive switches and drivers, and a wide range of power supply and battery-related ICs.

What is important to note here is that this is not merely a “future EOL plan.” NXP has designated many of the affected products as “Full Withdrawal,” “Limited Availability,” or “Sole Source,” and explicitly states that for “Limited Availability” products, additional supplies may not be available even before the LTB deadline once remaining manufacturing capacity or inventory is exhausted.

Confirmed Facts

• The official NXP notice “202608007DN” has an Issue Date of August 6, 2026, and an Effective Date of August 7, 2026.
• The reason is that, following the sale of the Chandler Fab and Probe, the legacy technologies and products covered by the notice will not be transferred to other manufacturing sites.
• While NXP states that it does not anticipate any immediate impact on supply from Chandler, it notes that supply is subject to inventory levels, manufacturing capacity, materials, quality requirements, and LTB conditions.
• Representative affected part numbers include G9S08AW32E5CFGE, MC9S08AC16CFGE, MC06XS4200CFK, MC33772BSA1AE, and MC33907NAE.
• Many of these representative examples are marked as “Full Withdrawal,” “Limited Availability,” or “Sole Source,” with an LTB date of August 6, 2027, and a final shipment date of August 6, 2028.
• Potential successors are listed for some part numbers. For example, the MC33FS6500CAE is listed as a successor to the MC33907NAE; however, NXP does not guarantee that these replacements are Form/Fit/Function compatible or drop-in replacements.

Representative affected part numbers

*The table above shows representative examples. Since there are numerous items subject to this notice, please verify your actual BOM using the complete part numbers provided in the NXP notice.

Impact on Procurement

If you are using affected part numbers in your mass-production BOM or for long-term support items, it is risky to base ordering decisions solely on the LTB date. Limited Availability products are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, and additional supply may not be available once remaining capacity or inventory is exhausted.

In particular, for S08-series MCUs and analog/power ICs for automotive and industrial applications, evaluation of alternatives may take time due to the involvement of PCBs, software, certifications, PPAP, and other factors. While it is not possible at this time to definitively conclude that there will be a market-wide shortage or price increase for all part numbers, you should confirm the continued availability of each affected part as soon as possible.

Actions Purchasing Personnel Should Take

1. Cross-reference the BOM using full part numbers to verify whether it includes the part 202608007DN.
2. Calculate the required “Lifetime Buy” quantity based on current inventory, outstanding orders, annual consumption, and the maintenance period.
3. Obtain written confirmation from authorized sales channels regarding order acceptance, allocation status, LTB terms, and the final shipment date.
4. Even if there are candidate replacements, evaluate their electrical characteristics, packaging, software, and automotive certifications with the design and quality departments.
5. When utilizing overseas inventory, verify the date code, lot number, manufacturer’s label, packaging and storage conditions, and traceability.

Practical Comments from AI Components

The most important point to note in this notification is the misconception that “since the LTB is August 2027, there is still time.” NXP itself clearly states that it will supply Limited Availability products only within the limits of remaining capacity and inventory.

For projects involving long-term mass production or maintenance obligations, it is more practical to simultaneously confirm remaining supply through official channels, determine the required quantities, evaluate alternatives, and investigate overseas inventory. On the other hand, there is no need to unconditionally buy up market inventory based solely on EOL information. The first step is to identify the target part numbers and required quantities.

Inquiry CTA

If you require procurement or alternative evaluation for NXP products subject to EOL or LTB, S08-series MCUs, or automotive and power supply ICs, please provide AI Components with the manufacturer name, complete part number (MPN), required quantity, desired delivery date, target price, and whether an alternative is feasible.

We will verify potential domestic and international suppliers, overseas inventory, substitution feasibility, and traceability conditions on a case-by-case basis. We will only provide information regarding inventory, price, and delivery time that has been actually confirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions

If the LTB date is August 6, 2027, is it okay to wait until then?

There is no one-size-fits-all answer. Since “Limited Availability” items are supplied on a first-come, first-served basis within the limits of remaining manufacturing capacity or inventory, NXP explicitly states that it may not be able to provide additional supplies once capacity or inventory is exhausted.

Can the successor part numbers indicated by NXP be used as direct replacements?

This is not guaranteed. Since NXP does not guarantee that alternative candidates will be identical in Form/Fit/Function or performance, evaluation by the design and quality departments is required.

What should I check when securing market inventory?

Verify the complete part number, quantity, date code, lot, manufacturer’s label, packaging and storage conditions, source, and traceability. For EOL products, it is particularly important to verify authenticity and storage conditions.
