From the site you linked: "Our life cycle management program assures
you of a dependable, quality source of obsolete IC's forever. "
Now it was my turn of having a good laugh.. thanks for that, I didnĀ“t
knew that this service existed.

Aside, there are private fabrication houses that make short runs of
obsolete chips in order to keep mission critical electronics running,
such as in aerospace and military applications. I'm not sure what
Keysight would actually do, but I would presume not only do they
stockpile key parts, both active and passives, as well as full boards
for board level swaps, but periodic re-checking their inventory for
functional integrity can be a never ending task as components age
beyond their expected operational life. If parts truly were to become
obsolete even beyond private fabrication, their management should
design replacements boards and field test them way in advance of parts
becoming extinct, until they decided the product was not worth
maintaining.
