Industrial
The industrial market covers a wide range of applications and supports customer volumes ranging from hundreds to millions of systems per year. These systems often have long lifecycles, and procurement must be managed over the full system life. In addition, these systems can require industry certifications, which restrict re-design efforts.
Rochester assists our industrial customers in addressing these challenges. Our focus is going beyond a devices' standard lifecycle by:
- Providing 100% authorized stock on active and end-of-life (EOL) devices
- Purchasing stock during discontinuation cycles to maintain inventory beyond the last-time-ship date
- Providing fully licensed manufacturing for obsolete products where demand continues after available inventory has been depleted
Key Products & Concerns
Microprocessors and Peripherals
- Impacted by sole sourced-architecture specific devices
- Requirements for system software update
- Limited support of legacy interfaces
Discrete, Logic, and Memory
- Power requirements based on semiconductor technology
- PCB re-design due to package obsolescence
- Limited availability based on density and performance metrics
