Newark InOne, a small-quantity distributor of electronic components and test equipment in North America, has launched its exclusive RoHS catalog as an interactive online vehicle. The catalog (at newarkinone.com) features 40,000 RoHS-compliant products.
 
Engineers and component buyers can search by part number or description, evaluate products and buy them. The catalog groups components by type (rather than brand) for easy comparison, and includes a detailed guide to RoHS compliance.
 
Pages can be turned one by one, or the user may jump to any product category on the index: semiconductors, passive components, interconnect/wire & cable, electromechanical/power/circuit protection, optoelectronics or soldering. A page can be flagged with an electronic note and emailed to colleagues or purchasing departments.
 
The catalog also features helpful tool tips. "Most component manufacturers changed
their part numbers when they released their RoHS compliant versions," remarks Susan Fischer, senior vice president marketing/eCommerce, Newark InOne. "By scrolling over a part number, a pop-up window with the old part number will appear. This helps our customers to confirm that they are buying the right part."
 
Manufacturers in the catalog include: Texas Instruments, On Semi, Maxim/Dallas, IR, National, Intersil, AMD, Fairchild, Freescale, Avago, Kester, Littelfuse, Honeywell, Tyco, Molex and Amphenol.
