Vishay Intertechnology will be presenting 39 different product demonstrations at electronica 2008. The demonstrations will highlight performance characteristics of a number of Vishay discrete semiconductors and passive electronic components.

The electronica trade show, held every two years in Germany, presents the world’s largest range of electronic components and application-oriented assemblies. Vishay will be participating at electronica 2008 with exhibits at four locations within the New Munich Trade Fair Centre:

Vishay’s product demonstrations use important technical criteria to show how Vishay components, a number of which utilize patented or industry-best technology, outperform competing components. As a group, the product demonstrations indicate the breadth and depth of Vishay’s extensive product portfolio, which is one of the industry’s broadest. The product groups represented in the demonstrations are:

* Diodes
* Rectifiers and modules
* Power MOSFETs
* Power ICs
* Optoelectronics
* Resistors
* Inductors
* Capacitors
* Bulk Metal® foil resistors

A video preview of one of the Bulk Metal® foil resistor demonstrations (Accelerated Life Test for Vishay Foil Resistors) is available on the Vishay web site. The video demonstration applies seven time rated power to two resistor technologies and displays the visual and parametric results of the accelerated life test.
