A microprocessor is a programmable semiconductor device that performs arithmetic, logic, and computational operations for computers and embedded systems.

A microprocessor works by executing software instructions, processing data, and coordinating communication between system components through arithmetic and logical operations.

Microprocessors are used in:

• Computers
• Networking equipment
• Industrial control systems
• Embedded devices
• Automation systems

Microprocessors are designed for high-performance computing systems that require external components, while microcontrollers integrate memory and peripherals on-chip for dedicated tasks.

A microprocessor is a specialized integrated circuit (IC) that serves as the central processing unit (CPU) of a computer or electronic device, responsible for processing instructions and performing calculations. Integrated circuits, however, are a broader category of semiconductor chips that include microprocessors as well as memory chips, sensors, amplifiers, and other components designed for specific electronic tasks.

As a full line supplier, we specialize in sourcing obsolete and hard to find electronic components for your projects.

After we receive your request submission, one of our account executives will reach out to your team to gather more information about your project requirements and ensure we tailor the order to your needs.

Once requirements such as date codes, quantities, target prices, testing requirements, and more are discussed, our purchasing team will secure stock through Microchip USA’s direct access to manufacturing partners’ excess inventory lists.

Our operations teams will handle logistics and fulfillment to ensure supply chain continuity, and our support team will provide clear communication throughout the process.

Our net terms for electronic component sourcing are flexible and vary by order. Our account executives will work with you to ensure our terms meet your company’s needs. We also offer scheduled shipments and inventory management solutions to ensure a steady supply of electronic components, maintain cash flow, and maximize warranty periods. We always offer a warranty on all tested parts. See our sales terms and conditions for more information.

We partner with industry-leading AS6171 & AS6081-certified third party testing labs to mitigate risk and support a wide array of end uses for your company’s requirements. Testing includes but isn’t limited to: Decapsulation & Internal Dye Verification. X-Ray Inspection & Analysis, External Visual Inspection, Surface Texture Analysis (SEM), and Electrical Pin Correlation.
