partnering with Avnet we will have a unique position in the marketplace
to gain the attention of the design engineers due to Avnet’s dedicated
design engineering sales personnel and expertise in the applications to

vertical marketing focus teams in Medical, Industrial, Military and

design-in-wins.”
