The SuppyFrame Index Top 20 for Component Information Demand, Second Quarter 2008
The SuppyFrame Index (SFI) Top 20 for Component Categories and Manufacturers ranks global demand of product design information for electronic components.
To identify the top categories and manufacturers, the SFI formula factors search and download activity across the major search engines and industry websites used by electronics designers for the period April through June 2008. The proprietary SFI formula weighs searches for part numbers, part descriptions and categories, downloads of technical products, including datasheets, application notes, drawings, schematics, and other information.
