Goods Other Than Development Tools. For all Goods other than development tools, Microchip warrants that Goods, excluding customized software/firmware, are free from defects in material and workmanship, and conform to Microchip’s published specifications in all material respects for one year from date of delivery, or 30 days for unpackaged semiconductors. Goods not conforming to this warranty and returned to Microchip within the applicable warranty period will be eligible for replacement, repair, or credit as follows. To obtain a remedy for nonconforming Goods, the following conditions must be met: (1) Customer must notify Microchip in writing promptly on discovery of the deficiency with reasonable detail within the warranty period; (2) Customer must return Goods to Microchip promptly upon receipt of an RMA, at Customer’s risk and expense; and (3) Microchip confirms the claimed deficiency is present and not attributable to a Disqualifying Event (as defined below). If all of these conditions are met, Microchip, at its sole option, will either replace or repair the deficient Goods or credit Customer’s account for the amount Customer paid Microchip for them and reimburse Customer’s reasonable shipping costs for return of the Goods. The Warranty Period for any repaired or replacement Goods will be the balance of the Warranty Period for the original Goods remaining from the date Microchip received notice of the warranty claim from Customer, but in no event will such Warranty Period for the repaired or replacement Goods be less than 30 days from the date of delivery of the repaired or replacement Goods to Customer.
