EPCS16

  Hello everyone! I have EPCS18SI8N chips from 2017, made in Taiwan. Can you tell me if they are OK, usable, and of any value? Thank you.

Hi,
I won't expect relevant aging effects of unprogrammed flash, presumed it's stored in dry container or bag. For programmed devices, datasheet guarantees 20 years data retention at elevated temperature (55 deg C).

Regards
Frank
