Product lifecycles often extend far beyond the active availability of semiconductor components, making lifecycle status a crucial factor at any phase of the new product introduction (NPI) process. Now imagine the consequences if one or several critical components within a product design were to reach end-of-life (EoL) before the product itself achieves maturity. In such
In a world where “everything’s got electronics in it these days,” as Paul Green, Sales Director for Northern Europe, Middle East & Africa at Rochester Electronics put it, the risk of component obsolescence has become a concern, not just a supply chain nuisance. A recent webinar, sponsored by Flip Electronics and hosted by Paige Hookway,
Rochester Electronics takes a close look at the recent tightening in semiconductor supply, outlining the challenges faced by manufacturers and the practical steps needed to build a more robust and reliable supply chain. Insights from recent inventory challenges The semiconductor industry underpins modern technology, powering everything from automotive systems to medical devices. Yet recent developments
Rapid technological advancement – particularly driven by AI – has created challenges for long-lifecycle applications in sectors such as industrial, medical, and avionics. These markets often struggle to balance the benefits of innovation with the need for proven, stable components, and extended product lifespans. Design cycles, qualification requirements, and reliability demands make frequent technology transitions
