Digi-Key announces global distribution partnership with GLF Integrated Power

Electronic components distributor Digi-Key Electronics has expanded its product portfolio to include a global distribution partnership with GLF Integrated Power — a provider of ultra-efficient, ultra-small, silicon power control and protection integrated circuits (ICs) to the IoT, smart wearable, TWS earbuds, smart medical device, automotive, smartwatch optical modules, asset tracking and home security markets.

According to Digi-Key, the GLF Integrated Power design team has a track record of leading in power and analog design. When the IoT, ultra-portable and wearable revolution was beginning, GLF saw the need for a new generation of even more efficient power switch devices. The company thus developed new IP and enabled efficient and differentiated power management solutions that are both cost-effective and simple to design with, Digi-Key says.

GLF launched I_QSmart, its ultra-efficient load switch device, in 2016 at APEC in Los Angeles, and achieved design wins from major wearable, SSD and portable device manufacturers. The company’s portfolio has been rapidly expanding ever since, with a mission to make wearables, mobile devices, smart computing and IoT products live longer, more efficient lives.

“We are thrilled to add GLF Integrated Power to the Digi-Key Marketplace,” said David Stein, Vice President of Global Supplier Management for Digi-Key. “Their ultra-efficient semiconductor offerings provide the IoT, wearable and portable device market next-level options for longer lasting, more efficient designs.”

“As a trusted global supplier of electronic components and a key resource for design engineers and supply chain managers, the Digi-Key Marketplace is a great fit for GLF load switches, power deep sleep protection components, battery protection ICs and power multiplexers,” said Eileen Sun, CEO of GLF Integrated Power. “We are very excited to be a part of this distribution program.”
