Case Studies
Learn how Rochester helped a Medical OEM continue production under its existing FDA clearance, without requiring a new 510(k) submission.
In a groundbreaking collaboration between Siemens and Rochester Electronics LLC, the Boston Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) Red Line avoided a costly fleet- wide upgrade by successfully reverse-engineering obsolete Electronic Programmable Logic Devices (EPLDs).
Learn how Rochester collaborated with its OCM partner to offer the Okuma Corporation an extended life solution for the MC68000-family 32-bit embedded microcontroller in its OSP-U100 CNC equipment.
See how Rochester's licensed manufacturing solution helped to extend the life of the TSL1401CCS.
Hybrid modules are used extensively in military applications. However, these long-life applications may require critical equipment to be operational for decades, making continuity of supply a significant challenge. Learn how Rochester provided hybrid module assembly for an aerospace and defense technology company saving them from significant redesign and requalification costs.
Working together, Rochester and thyssenkrupp were able to replicate, test, and qualify this component within less than a year, from project start to mass production ramp-up.
Rochester worked with Artesyn ® to replicate the LSI Hawk ASIC which is critical to supporting Artesyn’s VME products.
Waters Corporation: Legacy ADSP brought back to life
A manufacturer turned to Rochester Electronics to source replacements for counterfeit devices in their engine control modules with fully licensed and authorized products.
Manufacturers face significant challenges when a critical device becomes obsolete or reaches its “end of life” stage. This scenario almost crippled one transportation manufacturer’s nuclear submarine development program.
Aerospace and electronics manufacturers can’t afford lengthy disruptions in production. So when critical parts become obsolete, manufacturers must quickly find a reliable replacement so that they can continue production.
Using counterfeit semiconductors embedded in critical systems is a risky business. This is especially true in industries – such as the military. A manufacturer contacted Rochester Electronics to manufacture a replacement device for their critical system.
Memory devices are critical components of avionics systems. While these components can be replaced, manufacturers can face major challenges and a costly redesign if the original part is discontinued. Rochester replicated a multi-die package NAND device for an aerospace manufacturer.
Rochester’s solution for this biomedical device customer was to replicate the original device, avoiding a costly redesign.
A valued Rochester customer required an ongoing supply of the MC68040FE processor to produce medical ventilators to be used in the fight against COVID-19.
