 Avnet, Inc. (NYSE:AVT)
Avnet Electronics Marketing Americas, a business region of AVT, has inked a distribution agreement with Triad Semiconductor, the leader in the design and manufacture of configurable low-cost mixed signal ASICs based on via-configurable array (VCA). The agreement provides AVT customers in the defense, medical, industrial, consumer and automotive markets a low-cost, rapid path to semiconductor integration through its ViaASIC? solutions. 
Triad?s mixed-signal VCA features similar programmability benefits of field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), but differ in that they are programmed during fabrication (not in the field) by creating a unique via layer to connect the required analog and digital cells to implement a mixed-signal circuit. Unlike FPGAs, VCAs contain analog cells allowing for integration of analog circuits in addition to the digital. To view the entire Triad Semiconductor product line available from Avnet, visit www.AvnetExpress.com. Founded in 2002, Triad Semiconductor is changing the way mixed signal ASICs are designed. Triad makes ViaASICs? that combine silicon-proven analog and digital resources onto ASIC die that are configured with a single via-only mask layer change. This approach to custom silicon design reduces development cost, development time, and is easier and less risky than traditional full-custom IC design. Triad is a privately-held fabless semiconductor provider of IC solutions for any production volume from thousands to millions with headquarters at 3900 Westpoint Blvd., Winston-Salem, NC 27130.
