An Ideal Solution for mmWave & 5G Applications

LaFox, IL, August 20, 2020– Richardson Electronics, Ltd. (NASDAQ: RELL) announced today that after a thorough auditing process its die handling program is now approved for Qorvo’s extensive portfolio of high performance RF products and solutions.

As a factory authorized die movement facility, Richardson Electronics – Power & Microwave Technologies has further enhanced its ability to serve its customers in their design work. Die handling makes it possible to take orders for smaller quantities of the product for prototypes and pre-production builds, creating design flexibility. This value add enables Richardson Electronics to support customers for demand creation on die-related products from our supplier partners.

“We are proud to be one of a very few distributors that have the capability to handle die products,” said Greg Peloquin, Executive Vice President of Richardson Electronics’ Power & Microwave Technologies group. “Qorvo certification adds to our unique capability in supporting our global customers,” he concluded.
