CY8C20180 replacement part

[JL]

I have a board that's been in production for several years that uses CY8C20180 (SO16 package). Now I see that CY8C20180 seems to be obsolete. Is there a pin-compatible replacement for this part? If not, is there a functionally compatible part?

You can use CY8C20110-SX2I as a pin-compatible replacement part for CY8C20180-SX2I.

I see that CY8C20110 is currently available but "not for new designs" (Digikey). Does this mean it will also soon become obsolete? If so, what is the least expensive way to migrate to another part?

[SampathS_11]

You can consider our CapSense MB3 family as a newer alternative.

Does this mean CY8C20110 will soon become obsolete? How long can I expect it to be in production?

I request you to kindly refer to Cypress PCN Handbook for further information. You can request for PCN alerts by writing to pcn_adm@cypress.com. Kindly refer our PCN home page also.

Discontinuing a part depends on the purchase volumes of current and future customers for the part, which is difficult to forecast for long term horizons.
