I could not find such information at PI website or Package Information document. 

 

Thanks!

I'd like to know the weight of TO-220-7C and eSIP-7C packages.

 

 

Thanks!

Sorry, I forgot the part.

 

Parts are: TOP261EN and TOP261YN.

I pulled some parts from labstock and weighed them.  This is just an average of a handful of ICs and from only one lot but it should get you pretty close.

TOP261EN - 48 IC's = 23.8 grams =  ~0.50 grams per IC

TOP261YN - 25 IC's = 48.2 grams =  ~1.93 grams per IC

 

For the Y package part, the weight per IC will be smaller in an actual production use scenario due to excess material from the IC legs getting cut off after soldering.

 

I hope that helps,
