A simpler route to access product datasheets on its website has been introduced by Mouser Electronics. Mouser customers now can find product information more easily via Datasheets, Images and Newest Products, in addition to searching for products through the site’s parametric Product Search.

In addition to browsing and searching parts by product category, customers can now click the Datasheets tab on Mouser.com to review Mouser’s extensive library containing hundreds of thousands of datasheets. The new datasheet feature allows customers to browse datasheets by using any search or navigation function.

“These new features are designed to help customers who don't already have a part number or product in mind,” said Hayne Shumate, Mouser’s Senior Vice President of Internet Business. “It is now possible for datasheets to be grouped and browsed fluidly using the search and filter methods that customers already know.”

The Datasheets tab makes it easy to go from a product list to a datasheet, enabling customers to filter a specific product group and browse the relevant datasheets by product category. With one click, customers can open any datasheet in an integrated PDF viewer and see availability and pricing for all parts that reference the sheet. Moving from one datasheet to the next is like flipping pages.

Clicking on All Products, for instance, opens a page with links to various categories, such as Semiconductors, Circuit Protection, Connectors and 15 other parts categories.

For example, clicking on “Semiconductors,” reveals a Datasheet tab with 100,509 individual entries; “Connectors” features 298,749 datasheets, all easily assessed and perused. Simple tabs at the bottom of each datasheet allow users to quickly enlarge or download that datasheet.

With this new expandedfunctionality, customers can browse products and narrow product information on their own terms.
