STERLING, Mass., Oct. 29, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — ES Components (Eastern States Components, LLC), a niche distributor and manufacturer of microelectronic components for Military/Aerospace and High Reliability markets, today announced full certification by Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (“DLA”) for MIL-PRF-38535 Class Q specification, QML-38535 listing and laboratory suitability compliance to MIL-STD-883 test standards for producing monolithic integrated circuits (“IC”).

Prior to receiving this certification, ES Components was limited to only distributing the military MIL-PRF-38535 compliant (/883, 5962- or 38510- in part numbers) and commercial Analog Switches/Multiplexers produced by Vishay Siliconix. Following ES Components’ acquisition of these monolithic IC devices from Vishay (https://www.escomponets.com/siliconix-military3) and MIL-PRF-38535 certification by DLA, ES Components is now authorized to build and support new compliant IC products that will be marked with the “ESC” brand. This entails using the Vishay Siliconix Analog Switch and Multiplexer die, wafers, documentation and manufacturing equipment purchased in the acquisition. ES Components manages assembly and test of these devices through facilities with approved DLA MIL-PRF-38535 lab suitability such as VPT Components (“VPT”), a division of SST Components, Inc. (“SST”) in Billerica, MA and Microchip Technology (Thailand) Co., Ltd. (“MMT”). Additionally, ES Components provides MIL-PRF-19500 JAN/TX/TXV JFETs and MOSFETs listed under DLA’s Qualified Product List (“QPL”), which are manufactured and branded by VPT (“Basic Plant”), using Vishay Siliconix die/wafers which were acquired by ES Components (“Contracted Plant”).

“We are very pleased to have reached this significant milestone in becoming 38535 certified with DLA and producing ESC brand of compliant products in continued support of our military customers’ demand for Siliconix Analog switches and multiplexers. We had already established continued production of 19500 Siliconix JFETs and MOSFETs with DLA, and this certification completes the transition of all the Vishay Siliconix military and commercial hermetic products to ES Components,” said Don Larson, Product Manager at ES Components.

“We are fortunate to have partnered with excellent subcontractors that are DLA approved and we look forward to expanding our business with them. ES Components has been a well-known distributor for many years and we need to let our customers know that we are also a manufacturer with excellent capabilities to provide ongoing JAN and /883 products, as well DMSMS/obsolescence turnkey solutions” said Michelle Aubrey President of ES Components.
