Semiconductor Lifecycle Management (SLiM) brochure - 2

Complex aerospace and defence equipment is at risk from the effects of unmanaged obsolescence before and after entering service. The accelerating pace of semiconductor product change and development requires new approaches to the design, manufacture and through-life support of aerospace and defence, and long life-cycle commercial systems, to prepare for and manage component obsolescence. With system lifecycles extending to 20 or more years and sometimes up to 70% of components becoming obsolete before programmes are commissioned, it is time for a new approach to obsolescence management. So,...
