Qimonda and EBV Elektronik sign distribution agreement

News
Co-operation strengthens Qimonda`s position in the European industrial market.
Qimonda, a supplier of memory products, and EBV Elektronik, an Avnet company and a specialist in European semiconductor distribution, signed a distribution agreement which became effective January 2008. Under the terms of the agreement EBV Elektronik distributes DRAM modules and components from Qimonda in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), focusing on industrial and networking as well as consumer, mobile and automotive applications.

Following its diversification strategy aimed at non PC markets, Qimonda now offers in Europe also a dedicated product portfolio and service support for those markets. Qimonda's extensive portfolio is based on power saving DRAM products, innovative package and module designs and aims at automation and control products, IPCs, embedded computer, robotics, telecom or datacom infrastructures and industrial networking. Compared with DRAM for PCs, these applications demand higher reliability, robustness (with an expanded temperature range) and power efficiency combined with superior performance. Especially important for these markets is confidence in product availability and extended product life cycles.

"Offering an optimized product portfolio for industrial applications and networking as well as for consumer, mobile and automotive applications, combined with extended end-of-life support and related design services, Qimonda is addressing the specific demands of these markets," said Jörg Strughold, President Qimonda Europe. "With this distribution agreement we will benefit from EBV`s extensive design expertise and deep knowledge of the European, Middle East and African markets and significantly strengthen our market position. We value the EMEA-wide sales network that EBV has in place to complement our sales penetration."

"EBV Elektronik is very pleased to collaborate on an EMEA basis with Qimonda, one of the largest and most innovative DRAM manufacturers in the world," said Slobodan Puljarevic, President & CEO of EBV Elektronik. "The addition of Qimonda's diversified DRAM product portfolio provides a significant extension to our memory line card. When paired, Qimonda's state of the art memory products with EBV's technical expertise, commercial services and logistics & supply chain capabilities, the result is high-quality solutions. This means for our customers across EMEA shorter lead times, reduced time to market, and another unique product line. We look forward to working with Qimonda and we know that this will be a successful relationship for everybody involved, especially our customers", Puljarevic concludes.
