Arrow Electronics and Triad Semiconductor Team to Offer Mixed-Signal Via-Configurable Array ASICs
Triad Semiconductor is first dedicated Analog ASIC provider in Arrowâs portfolio
MELVILLE, N.Y. and WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - Dec. 10, 2007 - The North American Components business of Arrow Electronics, Inc. and Triad Semiconductor, Inc., a leading mixed-signal ASIC provider, will make Triadâs mixed-signal via-configurable array ASICs available through Arrowâs North American sales and design centers.
Arrow will provide technical sales and support and product logistics for Triadâs mixed-signal ASIC customers. Triadâs patent-pending approach significantly reduces engineering labor and fabrication costs for high-performance ASIC designs, and can speed âtime-to-prototypeâ by more than half a year.
âAs designs become more highly integrated, many of our customers have been asking for mixed-signal ASIC support,â said Chris Miller, director of the customer logic solutions group of Arrowâs North America Components business. âOver the last 6 months, weâve seen a significant interest in Triadâs technology.� Customers appreciate how Triad has addressed their analog integration challenge with a competitive and flexible single-mask programmable technology.�� Customers are seeing the benefits with a lower NRE, faster time to production, along with the ability to make design changes quickly and inexpensively.â
âArrow is the ideal strategic design and distribution partner, with its outstanding design support and unparalleled reach to 40,000 customers throughout North America,â said Lynn Hayden, chief executive officer at Triad Semiconductor. âOur combined efforts short circuit the time, cost and risk associated with full-custom layout, letting companies in the medical, industrial, communications, sensor and other sectors achieve cost-effective, high-performance mixed-signal ASIC designs.â
