VISHAY

Vishay Intertechnology is a leading manufacturer of discrete semiconductor devices as well as passive electronic components.

The company was founded in 1962 and started its business activity from manufacturing foil resistors and strain gauges. Starting from 1985, the company, with the vast experience and strong market position, has led a strategy of development by taking over different companies manufacturing widely understood electronics. Among companies which now belong to Vishay, there are: Siliconix, Telefunken, IR department of Infineon, General Semiconductor, Dale, Draloric, Sprague, Vitramon, BC Components and Beyschlag. In 2007, in line with the expansion policy, Vishay took over selected product lines of International Rectifier.

Presently, the company’s offer is represented by 30 internal brands and used in all branches of industry.
