Yageo range is ideal for automotive and transportation markets; telecommunications; industrial and smart manufacturing; energy, and power.
Bangalore, India – 9 March 2020: element14, an Avnet Company and global distributor of electronic components, products and solutions, has signed a new global franchise agreement with Yageo, extending its’ existing relationship to give customers access to the full product range. Yageo is one of the world’s largest passive component companies, the leading manufacturer of chip resistors and one of the top suppliers of Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCCs).
This new agreement represents a further strengthening of element14’s extensive passive component range, with the complete portfolio of Yageo products available for fast delivery.
As a trusted supplier for more than 40 years, Yageo’s broad range of highly reliable chip resistor and MLCCs support a wide range of applications. Passive component solutions, available from element14, will support design and maintenance engineers working in the following key markets:
Automotive and transportation – Yageo’s automotive-qualified MLCC and R Chip components are ideal for the demands of the automotive environment which requires highly reliable passive components that can operate under humid conditions and in small spaces without sacrificing power dissipation. Yageo’s range of solutions support established systems such as engine control and power steering, as well as relatively new systems, including car-to-car communications and self-parking. In addition to resistors and capacitors, Yageo ceramic patch/chip antennas and PCB antennas bring wireless connectivity to infotainment and telematic systems to enrich drivers’ experiences and enhance safety when driving
Telecommunications – Yageo’s comprehensive range, including resistors, capacitors, varistors and wireless components, satisfy the unrelenting demand for miniturisation, whilst offering a wide resistance range in low TCR precision and tight tolerance. Their multilayer chip varistors are designed to protect increasingly sensitive semiconductors in portable devices from transient voltages, the alternative choice to diode suppressors. The range also include a portfolio of wireless component antennas and filters enabling unimpeded access to smart communication standards without sacrificing performance
Industrial and smart manufacturing – Yageo’s complete lineup of products for industrial applications fulfills power requirements with greater efficiency, lower cost, and smaller footprints. The R Chip and MLCCs are technically advanced, robust and highly reliable with long term performance characteristics and stability making them ideal for intelligent factory automation and robotics design. All Yageo’s industrial product lines meet RoHS and REACH industry compliancy, and strict production and quality standards serve to create the building blocks for a long product lifetime before obsolescence
Power and energy – Yageo offers a range of passive components which can operate in harsh environments and high humidity, suitable for renewable and alternative energy installations, particularly in remote locations where maintenance is difficult and system downtime costly. The range includes High voltage (HV Series) capacitors ideal for power invertors in wind and solar systems, to MLCCs with soft terminations (CS Series) designed to prevent damage and cracks in the ceramic body under mechanical, thermal, and vibratory stresses.
Simon Meadmore, Global Head of IP&E, at element14 says: “We are delighted to be making Yageo’s full range of products available to element14 customers through this new global agreement. As one of the largest chip resistor and capacitor manufacturers in the world, Yageo products further enhance our extensive passive component portfolio, providing easier access to quality products for our customers. With warehouses in the United Kingdom, mainland Europe, North America and the Asia Pacific region, customers can rely on element14 to deliver the components they need on time and this is another example of our commitment to provide customer choice and ensure availability of key brands through our global distribution network.”
Arthur Wang, Managing Director at Yageo, Europe: “We are delighted to have element14 as a high service distributor supporting YAGEO’s comprehensive product range. element14 already has a strong partnership with KEMET and PULSE. As a Global passive component leader, YAGEO group will work closely with element14 to provide customers with short time delivery and best service.”
element14 customer also benefit from an extensive range of support, including free access to online resources, data sheets, application notes, videos and webinars on element14 website and 24/5 technical support. In addition, access to Avnet’s broad ecosystem, ensures support at every stage, saving customers time and money, and speeding up their design to production journeys.
The complete range of Yageo passive components is available for fast shipping from Farnell in EMEA and element14 in APAC
