A7. Maxim creates new part numbers with different suffixes, such as DSxxxxL and DSxxxxLB, to separate the package type, revision, and device type in inventory. For example, The “L” in DS2155L indicates that the DS2155 is packaged in an LQFP, commercial type. Commercial type devices have a temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. The “G” in DS2155G indicates that the DS2155 is packaged in a CSBGA, commercial type. The “LN” in DS2155LN indicates that the DS2155 is packaged in an LQFP, industrial type. Industrial type devices have a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The suffix may also represent a different package outline drawing or materials analysis.
