Need design guidance? Ask a distributor

摘要

Component vendors and resources like EDN are go-to sources for design guidance, but electronics distributors can also help you get your designs off the ground. Many distributors have their own teams of application engineers. Companies such as Newark offer libraries of application notes and white papers, as well as training and design tools. In addition, distributors like Avnet Inc. have long championed reference designs as a way to help OEMs speed product evaluations. Sometimes component vendors do these reference designs, but distributors have also stepped up to the challenge of creating their own.
