Baxter Electronics’ director of business development, Caanan Brown, explains why diversified sourcing, lifecycle planning and supply chain flexibility are critical for buyers

Over the next 24 months, the electronics supply chain will continue to be shaped more by structural demand shifts than by traditional cyclical recovery. The primary driver is artificial intelligence infrastructure: data center expansion, edge AI deployment and the compute ecosystems required to support them. These segments are consuming disproportionate volumes of advanced silicon and the surrounding components necessary to power, cool and connect these…

Rochester Electronics’ VP design technology, Dan Deisz, examines how licensed semiconductor manufacturing helps organizations mitigate end-of-life risk

Factors leading to semiconductor obsolescence include foundry process technologies, packages, substrates, test platforms and design resources. So, how does the manufacturing supply chain impact long-term product availability?  Older semiconductor products typically use through-hole and surface-mount lead frame packages, such as DIP, PLCC, QFP and PGA. However, the market now favors assemblies that do not require trim and form tooling.   Why did the industry move away from lead frame assemblies that require trim and form?  Exploring assembly…
