Does Max Semiconductors publish live inventory?

Not currently. Public product and offer pages remain excluded until a licensed supplier feed passes public-display and evidence review. Current requirements are handled by RFQ.

Does an RFQ place an order?

No. It asks the sourcing desk to research and prepare a written quote. Later approval and order steps are explicit and separate.

Can I request traceability or a specific date code?

Yes. State the exact requirement in the RFQ so it can be evaluated per sourcing option and written into the quote where supportable.

Are prices and lead times guaranteed?

No public sample or research data is a commercial offer. A written quote identifies the applicable price, validity, quantity, and lead-time basis.

Direct answer

What should a buyer know before submitting a component RFQ?

Use the exact manufacturer part number, required quantity, target date, destination, packaging, and any source, date-code, traceability, compliance, or alternate restrictions. Submitting an RFQ requests research and a written quote; it does not place an order or confirm that inventory exists.

Before submitting

A complete ordering code prevents package, grade, revision, and packing suffixes from being lost. For multi-line requirements, use the BOM workflow and keep one MPN and quantity per line.

During sourcing

Potential options are compared by exact part, supplier, quantity, packaging, cost basis, delivery basis, and available evidence. A listing is not treated as confirmed inventory.

After a quote

The quote states its validity and applicable conditions. Acceptance records the buyer's decision, but downstream order, payment, purchasing, fulfillment, and delivery documents remain separate commercial steps.
