Altium, LLC, the global leader in electronics design systems, announced a collaboration with SiliconExpert, a leading provider of electronic component and parts data management software.
This integration enables engineers, procurement professionals and other stakeholders using the Altium 365 electronics development platform to directly access comprehensive, real-time component data as it is needed during the design and product lifecycle.
With SiliconExpert’s data on more than a billion electronic components, Altium 365 users will soon be able to access more detailed component information than ever before – from the simplest resistors to the most complex ICs. The data, sourced directly from the manufacturers, helps ensure unparalleled accuracy and reliability in terms of decision-making.
“We are excited about the integration as part of the ongoing collaboration between SiliconExpert and Altium 365,” said Ananth Avva, GM and Senior Vice President of Cloud Platform at Altium. “The supply chain of components in electronics life cycle management is still an important issue for many of our customers. We are continually enriching the component data for our customers and Silicon Expert is a resource that is in high demand. We believe this integration will further improve the way teams across all disciplines – from designers to operations, procurement, finance, and quality and compliance – approach component selection, risk analysis and compliance management.”
