Obsolescence & Shortages

Winslow provides a wide range of adaptors for ICs, to minimise disruptions in production. Winslow is your trusted source for fast, cost-effective obsolescence solutions and supply chain shortages. Adapters are available for any footprint.

Rapid Fixes for Obsolescence

Don’t let PCN’s, Last-Time-Buy Notices, or Unplanned Re-Design disrupt your production lines. A last-time-buy notice requires a forecast for the remaining production and service life of your equipment while unplanned re-design introduces disruption not accounted for in project budgets and departmental hours.

Winslow, industry-trusted solutions, utilise an extensive knowledge of electronic hardware/software design and interconnect to ensure a drop-in form, fit & function alternative without the requirement for re-design or full system qualification.

When an ASIC is no longer available, Winslow engineers will migrate the functionality into a FPGA/CPLD and marry that to the original footprint. This proven, cost effective solution, eliminates the need to respin the digital board and can also provide an opportunity for function expansion and system upgrade.

Whatever the component or connector tripping you up, Winslow will propose a solution, keeping your production line operational.
