Silicon Labs standard terms and conditions of sale
All microcontrollers, Ethernet controllers, USB to UART ICs, and XOs/VCXOs in production are part of the Sample Program. However, development kits, evaluation boards and reference design kits are not included in the program.
The samples, including shipping, handling and any applicable taxes, are offered at no charge. Some additional duties and charges may be billed to the customer in certain countries.
In order to provide free samples it is necessary to limit the number of requests. Up to four unique items can be requested on a single order with a maximum limit of eight sample parts per order. Finally, there is a frequency limit of three orders in a 30-day period.
An automatic email will be sent to you with the status of your order and a tracking number if applicable.
Silicon Laboratories Inc. reserves the right to evaluate all sample requests prior to fulfillment. In the event your order is refused, you will be notified by email.
Because samples are offered at no charge they cannot be returned.
It usually takes three days to receive the parts from the day the order was placed; however, unforeseen shipping delays may occur.
