Toshiba going to EOL everything we use, seems like leaving audio market

zhoufang · 1st December 2010, 07:22 AM

In the pass few year they discontinued:
All ZIP-7 package device: 2SJ109 / 2SK389
Most P-JFET: eg 2SJ74
Power MOSFET: 2SJ200 (with 2SK1529 EOL announced), 2SJ201/2SK1530 （Toshiba had EOL schedule for 2SJ201 released too）

When I just Check, I found
2sJ103, EOL announced
All TO-92 through hole JFETS (including 2SK170 etc), NRND (not recommended for new design)
K3497/J618， NRND (Shocking, as this is considered a new FET)

Can someone please tell me, in a year or two's time, will there be still anything from Toshiba that is of our interest?

On the other side, Renesas is still making their decades old 2SK1058/2SJ162.

Hello Zhoufang, I suspect that Toshiba, like most semiconductor mfgs. is phasing out the thru hold devices, and going to all SMT. Bummer if you ask me, but the diyer isn't a big market for companies like Toshiba. They are going to where the volume is. Oh well.

Peace,

Dave
