Rochester Electronics, the world's most comprehensive authorized source for discontinued semiconductors, announces the opening of a sales and customer service center in Munich (München), Germany. The sales and support office enables Rochester to better serve OEMs, authorized distributors, and original semiconductor manufacturers in the region by providing continuing semiconductor manufacturing, inventory distribution, Extension-of-Life(TM) planning, and re-creation (reverse-engineering) services. The office is located at Wappenhalle Business Center, Konrad-Zuse-Platz 8, 81820 München. "We have been working with an increasing number of customers in Germany," said Martin Chatterton, director of worldwide sales at Rochester, "providing them with long-term supplies of reliable, traceable semiconductor components. With Rochester's re-creation and manufacturing capabilities, we can work with our customers to prevent production delays and system redesigns, both of which can be extremely expensive. Now, with our new office, we're right where our customers are. We're on call and able to react to their needs faster than ever before." Rochester Electronics offers an extensive line of mature and end-of-life semiconductors and is contractually licensed by more than 60 leading semiconductor manufacturing companies to support their customers' continuing requirements for discontinued parts.
