EBV Elektronik Launches "First Aid Kit" with Texas Instruments to Support Customers in Solving Hardware Challenges

Poing, Munich -- Helping engineers solve hardware problems and speed development of their designs, EBV Elektronik, an Avnet, Inc. (NYSE: AVT) company, has launched the “First Aid Kit” initiative with Texas Instruments (TI). The kit is a collection of solutions to help designers tackle typical hardware issues such as interfacing a display, running out of I/Os, coping with different voltages or solving address conflicts.

Based on standard linear and logic integrated circuits (ICs) from TI, the EBV-TI “First Aid Kit” is a troubleshooting box containing descriptions of different challenges and directions for solving various problems, along with samples and documentation to accelerate time-to-solution for research and development engineers and technicians.

“Our customers need a partner who contributes to their differentiation and supports them in reducing costs and time to market. At the same time, technological complexity continues to increase, presenting a significant challenge. That’s why EBV developed into a high-tech service company. We know the market, the products and the applications very well and provide in-depth technical support and application know-how through our team of 240 technical sales engineers and 120 application specialists,” said Rudy Van Parijs, vice president, Technical Development of EBV Elektronik.

“Why is technical support so important? The optimisation of time and cost starts with the idea for a new product. Problems and costs that arise at a later stage of a design typically start at the beginning and not at the point of buying the components. Based on the combination of TI’s standard linear and logic portfolio and the know-how of EBV, the ‘First Aid Kit’ allows designers to solve problems quickly and easily in these later stages of the project. This reduces customers’ cost and speeds time to market,” Van Parijs concluded.

“TI is pleased to work with a distribution partner like EBV, who knows the importance of technical support and services to help customers solve issues with challenges at the printed circuit board level,” said Stephane Rosa, Texas Instruments Standard Linear and Logic European marketing manager. “Texas Instruments has the right set of Standard Linear and Logic ICs that have helped customers worldwide for more than 40 years.”
